GLOVES GONE BY: Heavyweight Boxers from the Glorious Era 1960 to 1980


The heavyweight boxing scene may have enjoyed its most competitive time period in the decades 1960 to 1980. Champions like Patterson, Liston, Ali, Frazier, Foreman and Holmes roamed the landscape.

The book “Gloves Gone By” has focused on the boxers of this era and why they were so much a part of its memorable success.
