Ring Ramblings
From seedy gyms to ringside at Madison Square Garden, Ring Ramblings takes you deep into the heart of boxing. Experience the author's own adventures in the ring and listen in to chats with the greats. Fighters like Alexis Arguello, Gerry Cooney, "Sugar" Shane Mosley, Butterbean, and Fernando Vargas tell you what it's like in the ring; and people like HBO exec Lou DiBella and famed cutman Chuck Bodak give you the lowdown on life outside the ring. With profiles of current stars like Roy Jones Jr., Oscar De La Hoya, and Prince Naseem Hamed, as well as an expansive section on women's boxing, Ring Ramblings gets you as close as you can get to the ring without getting hit.

If you aren't already reading Tommy Gerbasi on Maxboxing.com or ufc.com - check out this book. It's a compilation of his early writings from cyberboxingzone and other websites. Trust me, you'll be hooked for life. The highlight for me is his detailed account of his first, and only, amateur fight. It's equal parts: comic, tragic and heroic - an absolute joy to read. One of the best boxing and MMA writers in the world today. Buy this book!!! Highly recommend!!!
