Description
Boxing is the sport with probably the longest history of all, with Egyptian hieroglyphics depicting bare-knuckle fighting that date back as far as 5,000 BC. But which was the greatest fight of all time? Who ranks number one among the multitude of pugilists over the years? There are so many fighters and so many fights to choose from that it is impossible to include them all but this book allows you to review some of the best contests and decide for yourself. Contenders include Muhammad Ali, George Foreman, Prince Naseem Hamed, Sugar Ray Leonard and many others.
