Summary: great book for the basics!!
Comment: I really enjoyed this book! It is a good basic boxing for fitness book. I was hoping it would have a bit more detail about workouts but really there is so much information it would be impossible to set a workout for everyone. I would definitely reccommend it for someone who was just starting out and wanted to get fit.

Summary: Terrific Supplement for the Fighting Man
Comment: This short guide to keeping fit for the fight game is as good as it gets. Great pics, easy-to-follow instructions for drills makes for a hassle-free supplement to anyone's training regimen. It isn't geared to pros or novices as there aren't much tips for improving punching or strategies in the ring; in reading through this book, the reader must keep in mind that the content is primarily focused on building or prepping one for the rigors of boxing training. So for those looking to get a headstart to prepare themselves for intensive boxing training, Oliver suggests you get in proper shape. This book will undoubtedly help you.
