Samenvatting:

The 1970's produced some of the greatest fighters in the history of professional boxing.Several of the champions in the 1970's including Muhammad Ali, Carlos Monzon, and Roberto Duran were considered by many boxing critics to have been the greatest fighters ever in their respective weight divisions.The Ali versus Frazier 1 fight in 1971 was called the Fight of the Century and it paved the way for other million dollar purses for fighters in other weight divisions.This book takes a close look at all the top fighters in each major weight division during this fabulous decade of boxing, and the author's choice for Fighter of the Decade, and Fight of the Decade.The author has also included a section on boxers in each major weight division who he feels have been unjustly bypassed for induction into boxing's Hall of Fame, due to the faulty selection process, and politics of boxing.
