Reviews
The editors here present pieces by Michael Stephens, Norman Mailer, Elliot Gorn, George Plimpton, Pete Hamill, A. J. Liebling and others. "These 23 essays by a variety of writers would have us believe that a boxing match is not a slugfest between two guys hammering at each other's brains," asserted PW.
