Liverpool Boxing Venues by Ray Physick

This book features rare photographs and memorabilia from the days when Merseyside provided some of the best fighters and hosted some of the most high profile bouts in the sport's history. Author Ray Physick has thoroughly researched the background to famous local boxing venues such as Pudsey Street and the now demolished Liverpool Stadium. Anfield, the home of Liverpool Football Club, is also featured as a major fight venue down the years, as is Stanley Park, the site of the famous 'Nark in the Park' between Shea Neary and Andy Holligan in 1998. Each venue includes a run-down of the major fights and big names to have stepped in the ring and this book brings the story right up to date by featuring the role the newly constructed ECHO Arena might play in hosting fights in the future. With a foreword by Scouse world champion John Conteh, this is a book that will get to the heart of what boxing means to the city of Liverpool.
