Overview

There are numerous books on boxing history and almost as many how-to box books, but this is the first volume that combines both the historical and instructional element. Our boxing legends cemented their boxing immortality in rounds featuring courage, prowess and tactical genius. How did these old school, all time champs - like Jack Johnson, Jack Dempsey, Gene Tunney and Stanley Ketchel - do it? This manual examines some of the best and most interesting rounds in boxing history and gets inside the historical import of what occurred. We will look at exactly what happened in some of the most action-packed moments of some of the best rounds in history and then supply recreated templates that allow you to drill and box precisely as they did in the given instances. There is no better way to get inside the head of a champion than to become a two-fisted historical pugilistic re-enactor who can move, bob, weave, duck, sidestep and punch just as these heroic ring warriors did. Here are five benefits a reader will gain from this book: 1. Gain historical perspective on one of mankind's most interesting and oldest sports. 2. Hone boxing skills via historical recreation modeling. 3. Create bonding with the material through historical perspective and physical execution. 4. Transform your boxing game as you learn to shift gears through champion mindsets. 5. Learn the valuable skill of immersion training versus simulacra training.
