Books about Boxing Trainers

Good thread idea, I'd never even thought about that..
But something of this sort would definitely be an interesting read

 

angelo dundees book is great and worth a read and also In the Corner: Great Boxing Trainers Talk About Their Art

 

In the corner by Dave Anderson & cornermen by Ronald Fried

END OF THREAD

 

This.......


I would get to as many gyms as ya can too........if further learning or such a position is ya goal.


Studying the likes of Maxwell Maltz etc is certainly a plus too


PS. Check SaddoBoxing also, there training section is very VERY good.

:thumbsup

 

Although not exactly about Trainers...Boxing Is My Sanctuary (Theodore Sares) is a collection of essays that explores both sides of Boxing that is coloured with paradox.
Between the violent and affectionate, the barbaric and the civilized, Sares finds ringside refuge in the midst of the sights, sounds, and smells that define boxing.

Also....Hard Fought Lessons From A Life In the Ring by Freddie Roach is due to be released next Spring!!!

 

Dave Anderson's book is AMAZING because of how many different versions of the same stories exist, especially how they connect to the Feds, corruption, etc.

 

i read The Art of In-fighting by Frank Klaus. Interesting book, infighting was something new in boxing when he was writing it, but tips n tricks from book are still the same today, he explained it really well.
