Download or read book Combat Sports written by David L. Hudson Jr. and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2009-05-13 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fistic combat represents the greatest human drama in all of sport. Roman gladiators thrilled citizens and emperors alike when they entered the octagon to face an intense, life-threatening experience. Boxing, the sport of kings, also has its roots in the ancient civilizations of Greece and Rome. Banned in 500 A.D. by the Emperor Theodoric, it resurfaced twelve centuries later in England. John Milton praised it as a noble art for building character in young men, and sports writer A.J. Leibling dubbed it the Sweet Science. Many of its major protagonists - men such as Joe Louis, Rocky Marciano and Muhammad Ali - have become transcendent, near-mythic heroes. But boxing is not the only combat sport, and mixed martial arts, in all their ferocious beauty, represent the fastest growing sports genre in the world. Ultimate Fighting Championships (UFC) has joined boxing in paying seven figures to some of its champions, and draws millions in its pay-per-view events. This book details leading figures in boxing, sumo wrestling, kickboxing, Greco-Roman wrestling, and mixed martial arts (including organizations such as Ultimate Fighting, PRIDE, K-1, Total Combat, and SportFighting). Over 150 entries cover champions, contenders, and other famous combatants from all over the world, as well as legendary promoters, managers, trainers, and events. Also included in this encyclopedia are sidebars on controversies, highlights, brief bios, and other noteworthy events, along with a general timeline. .

Book excerpt: A comprehensive look at the life of one the greatest sports superstars of the 20th Century, Muhammad Ali--boxer, anti-Vietnam War activist, civil rights campaigner, advocate for Parkinson's sufferers, and recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom. From a humble upbringing in segregated Louisville, Kentucky, Cassius Marcellus Clay Jr. went on to become Muhammad Ali, Olympic gold medalist, three-time heavyweight boxing champion of the world, and in his own words "the greatest." More than 150 iconic photographs chart Ali's life and rise to boxing stardom and showcase 60 key bouts that made his name, including the "Fight of the Century" against Joe Frazier, the "Rumble in the Jungle" with George Foreman, and the "Thrilla in Manila," his third and final match against Frazier.

Key influencers in his career, including Don King and Howard Cosell, are featured. The book also shines a light on Ali's continuing impact after his death in 2016, and how his message of hard work and perseverance continues to inspire people around the world.
