There once was a young middleweight named Crocket,
Who was jabbing his dick in a socket.
Along came a *****, who flicked-on the switch,
And Crocket took off like a rocket !


- William Shakespeare

I'm a huge Bob Dylan fan, but 'The Boxer' by Paul Simon is my favorite. It captures the toil and loneliness of the life.

"One Tough Motherfu**er" by Charles Bukowski, while not specifically about boxing, is one of my favorite poems about toughness.

 

Sun kil moon wrote a couple of slowcore classics...

"Salvador sanchez"

Salvador Sanchez arrived and vanished Only twenty-three with so much speed Owning the highway

Mexico City bred so many But none quite like him sweet warrior Pure magic matador

Pancho Villa would never rest 'Til 1925 he closed his eyes 'Til Manilla stars would rise

Gozo of the Phillipines, choirs and angels sing Ukelele strings play for his legend Italy had a king

How have they gone Fell by leather So alone Bound together

Benny "kid" Paret came a good way Climbed to the grey sky to raise his hands Stopped by the better man

Eyes of Los Rios cry for suns Lost on distant shores, unforeseen horrors Struck and delivered him

How have they gone Fell by leather So alone Bound together

Why have they gone Fell by leather So alone All bound together

"duk koo Kim"

Looking out on my roof last night Woken up from a dream I saw a typhoon coming in close Bringing the clouds down to the sea Making the world look gray and alone Taking all light from my view Keeping everyone in And keeping me here with you

Around you now, i can't sleep no more baby Around you still, don't want to leave yet

Woken up from a dream last night Somewhere lost in war I couldn't feel my feet or hands I didn't feel right anymore I knew there I'd die alone With no one to reach to But an angel came down And brought me back to you

I'd rather leave this world forever baby Than let life go the way it's going

Watching an old fight film last night Ray Mancini vs. Duk Koo Kim The boy from Seoul was hanging in good But the pounding took to him And there in the square he lay alone Without face without crown And the angel who looked upon Never came down

You never know what day could pick you baby Out of the air, out of nowhere

Come to me once more my love Show me love I've never known Sing to me once more my love Words from your younger years Sing to me once more my love Songs that i love to hear

Birds gather 'round my window Fly with everything i love about the day Flowers, blue and gold and orange Rise with everything i love about the day

Walk with me down these strange streets How have we come to be here So kind are all these people How have we come to know them

 

I like this song by tilt 360 called point blank. Kelly pavlik helped out with this song they were friends in youngstown.

This one was written with martial arts in mind but can easily be applied to boxing. I always have this on my workout playlists.
