Show Notes

This week me and Matt had the great honour of being joined on the podcast by legendary, Hall of Fame boxing writer Jerry Izenberg.

Jerry's been covering boxing for the Newark Star Ledger in New Jersey since 1950 and has seen it all; from the post war period when the Mafia controlled boxing right up until the present day.

Name an iconic fight during that period and Jerry was ringside. Patterson, Liston, Ali, Frazier, Foreman, Spinks, Holmes, Tyson, Holyfield, he's known them all so it was an absolute pleasure to talk to him about his life following the Noble Art.

Jerry's book, Once There Were Giants, the Golden Age of Heavyweight Boxing comes out in paperback on May 11th and is available now for pre-order via Amazon.
