Staredown by Thomas Hauser
Each year, readers, writers, and critics alike look forward to Thomas Hauser's newest collection of articles about the contemporary boxing scene. Reviewing his 2019 collection, Booklist proclaimed, 'It's hard to think of another sports journalist who knows more about his or her sport of choice. As it does every year, Hauser's anthology laps the field. The man is a treasure.' Staredown continues this tradition of excellence with inside reporting from the dressing room before some of last year's biggest fights, in-depth investigations into corruption in boxing, and more. Hauser also moves beyond the norm to explore incidents like street fights and examine boxing's storied history in new and creative ways.
Thomas Hauser is the author of fifty-three books. His first work, Missing, was made into an Academy-Award-winning film. He later authored Muhammad Ali: His Life and Times, the definitive biography of the most famous fighter ever. In 2004, the Boxing Writers Association of America honored him with the Nat Fleischer Award for Career Excellence in Boxing Journalism. In December 2019, it was announced that Hauser has been selected for boxing's highest honor: induction into the International Boxing Hall of Fame.
