Engaging study of the hidden side of boxing & boxers.,

This review is from: Unlicensed: Random Notes from Boxing's Underbelly (Paperback)
Full of intriguing tales and characters, "Unlicensed" is a great read for anyone interested in boxing... and for those who aren't, really. More than a study of boxing, it is a study of the men who look to it for direction. Primarily focused on England's underground boxing scene (but with peeks into Vegas, Tyson, and the indomitable Don King), this book takes the reader from pub to pub to warehouses and boxing clubs where Hotten meets with these boxers: some brutal, animalistic... and surprisingly likeable. A candid, colorful, and often funny (in its own way) glimpse of this somehow intimate world and its events. A really good read.
