Download or read book Bare Knuckle written by Stayton Bonner and published by Blackstone Publishing. This book was released on 2024-04-23 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Father. Fighter. Champion. Outlaw. Hailed as an “exhilarating debut” by Publishers Weekly, Bare Knuckle by former Rolling Stone editor Stayton Bonner (nominated for the Dan Jenkins Medal of Excellence in Sportswriting) takes readers into a previously unknown world: the underground circuit of illegal bare-knuckle fighting. Bare Knuckle is the remarkable true tale of Bobby Gunn, the 73–0 undisputed champion of bare-knuckle boxing. An inspiring underdog story that reads like a real-life Rocky. Bobby Gunn has been fighting for his existence since a childhood spent living under the hand of his volatile father, and would do anything to give his seven-year-old daughter a better life—including betting on himself in the underground world of bare-knuckle boxing. In 1984, Gunn was an eleven-year-old boxer in Ontario when his father woke him in the middle of the night to fight grown men in motel parking lots for money, his old man pocketing the cash. From there, Gunn traveled to Las Vegas, Tijuana, and beyond, competing in ringed matches as well as in biker bars and mobster dens on the side, brawling to make ends meet. But it was only with the birth of his daughter—and his desire to help her avoid his fate—that Gunn entered the big-time world of underground Russian-mob matches of up to $50,000 a night in New York City, hoping to finally raise his family above the fray. Former Rolling Stone editor Stayton Bonner travels the underground for years with Gunn, the world champion of bare-knuckle boxing with a 73–0 record, shining a light on a secret circuit that’s never before been revealed. Along the way, we explore the fascinating history of this first sport in America, Gunn’s Irish Traveler community—a sect of religious fighters best known through Brad Pitt’s depiction in Snatch—as well as his part in the improbable rise of the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship, the first legal revival of the sport. Bare Knuckle, a tale of triumph, loss, and a father’s love for his family, is a heartbreaking but ultimately inspiring story that will have you rooting until the end.

Book excerpt: "Anything that represents and reveals the most painful and disgusting parts of ourselves and our society, and does so with glee and humor -heals us by the very act of its creation. Knuckle Balled has fun while accomplishing this." E. Elias Merhige / Shadow of the Vampire Following the Vampire holocaust in LA, RJ and Eldritch find themselves in Austin with bait's younger sister, Pinball, searching for the great L Byron Nghtyshade--the only one Eldritch believes can help them. But Austin is weirder than the duo could have imagined. Not only are there more vamp gangs hindering RJ's mission, they're more insane than their LA counterparts and addicted to harder drugs than heroin. The obstacles push Rj into a pit of self-loathing and doubt of saving Pinbill from her sister's fate. As the chances of survival dim, and RJ is given one final chance at redemption, he must confront the one true evil... himself. More scummy, bloody, and heroin-y than the first book, Stepek gives the genre another twist in his unique take on the undead and their ongoing drug wars. With more scum, more blood, and more drug-induced mayhem than the first book, Stepek gives the genre another twist in his unique take on the undead and their ongoing drug wars.
