Description
"This work brings a fresh perspective to the study of modern prizefighting, a sport which has evolved over several centuries to become one of mankind's most lasting and valued sporting attractions. The author shows how organizers, publicity agents, and political allies overcame both legal and moral roadblocks to make fisticuffing a lively commercial enterprise."--Provided by publisher.
