A tremendous anthology. What is it about boxing that brings out the best in journalists? Far more than any other sport it seems to me. If I have any quarrel with the collection, and really its only a small quibble, its that there is a lot of focus on heavyweights and not much around the lighter weights - only Roberto Duran, Benny Leonard, Archie Moore, Marvin Hagler, Sugar Ray Leonard and Oscar De La Hoya really get mentioned. Nothing on Floyd Mayweather for example. Or Roy Jones. Or Bernard Hopkins. Or Jake La Motta to name only a handful. Still - I guess the heavyweights have always dominated popular attention. Highly recommend ( )
