Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Fan-favourite Welshman Driscoll provides an insight here into what at the time was a dying craft. That is the art of long range boxing or 'outfighting'.Published in 1914, the guide challenges the global consensus that the 'American Style' of crouch-fighting is the zenith of the craft in the modern era.Driscoll, via instruction, photography and fight-film stills showcases how and why a long-range fighter can be successful, artful and keep his faculties whilst doing so.It covers everything from clinch-work to nullify sluggers to the art of side-stepping and lateral movement to keep the opponent at the edge of your range.This guide is a rich tapestry of advice from a highly successful champion, using peers of the day such as Carpentier and Bombardier Wells. When it comes to movement, the lead hand and ring strategy, Driscoll's advice is top of its class.
