Sinopsis
Pugilatus tells the story of boxing, from the blood n' guts of 18th century England to Pay-Per-View giants like Floyd Mayweather and Carl Froch. History books rarely provide anything more than a friendly spar. Pugilatus comes at you with both fists, and it doesn't let up. Say hello to our bare-fisted pioneers, the heroes of Queensberry, and prepare to slip punches until 2013. In the last section await 15 of boxing's greatest showdowns, revisited in nose-busting detail. Over 100 quality photographs. Gloss paper. Eye-opening research. Journeymen need not apply.

Críticas
With a splendid analysis of just why Frazier was as dangerous as he was, and perhaps the best short piece on the early career of Mike Tyson I've ever read...I'm very glad I read it. --Darryl Jones, Boxing Monthly
In the wildly ambitious Pugilatus, Ted Spoon presents 300 years of boxing history in 300 pages. That in itself is no mean feat. But the writing is so wonderful, the author's knowledge and compassion runs so deep, that this book, an achievement by any standard, is a must-read for those with an interest in boxing, no less than for those with a predilection for fine writing. --Robert Ecksel, Editor at www.boxing.com
If you have an interest in boxing then this is the one to get. --Darren Harper, Yorkshire Radio
