How to box manual by James Corbett

Hi

I have recently finished reading Jack Dempsey's Championship fighting boxing manual and it's surprising how much of it is still relevant today. I just came across a boxing manual by James Corbit called Scientific boxing. The difference between the 2 manuals is very fascinating. It appears that much of James Corbett manual is more based on bare knuckle boxing where defending the body was more important than the face.

In this image they appear to be wearing hot pants.

Hmmm

Here is the link it's a free book now.

Fantastic!!! Green coming your way.

There's a picture in there of a fighter named Clever Tommy Murphy... I must admit I had never heard of him.
