Book excerpt: This book pays tribute to twenty two worthy yet lesser known professional boxers of the last hundred years. Some became champions, and some never were crowned as such. All have their own stories and share of glory though, be it long or fairly brief. Some of the names are famous, and some are unknown by the average boxing fan. Read here about the fighting careers of Rocky Kansas, Ruby Goldstein, and Sam Mc Vea, along with nineteen others.
