&OREWORD FROM "OB "REEN

"OXING IS AN AMAZING ART AND SCIENCE (ERE THEORY AND
PRACTICE lGHT IT OUT ON A NIGHTLY BASIS 0ART POETRY OF MOVEMENT
PART BRUTALITY THE LURE OF BOXING TO MODERN MAN IS VERY STRONG

(ERE ONE CAN TEST ONESELF IN RITUAL CONmICT AND FOR MANY
EVEN LIGHT SPARRING CAN BE A RITE OF PASSAGE 4HE TRAINING IS
WHOLESOME AND COMPLETE BUILDING LEAN BODIES AND MOST OFTEN
MINDS DEVOID OF AGGRESSION AND FEAR ) lND IT INCREDIBLE THAT

SOME SORT OF BOXING PERHAPS OF A LESS DESTRUCTIVE NATURE ISN T
PART OF THE SPORTS CURRICULUM IN ALL SCHOOLS

(OWEVER TO PROGRESS WELL IN THIS ART YOU NEED A GOOD
TRAINER AND ) KNOW FEW BETTER AND MORE PASSIONATE THAN )AN

/LIVER )AN IS A UNIQUE INDIVIDUAL NOT ONLY A GOOD AND VERY
KNOWLEDGEABLE COACH WITH A HUGE INTEREST IN BOXING BUT
ERUDITE AND WIDELY READ ON ALMOST ANY SUBJECT (E BRINGS FUN

AND ENTHUSIASM AND A DOWN TO EARTH EASE TO ALL HIS CLASSES
AND ) M GLAD THAT THIS EASE AND FUN HAS BEEN CARRIED OVER TO
THIS BOOK )T S NOT AS GOOD AS TRAINING WITH THE MAN HIMSELF BUT
NEARLY 4HOROUGHLY RECOMMENDED
