Shows how organizers, publicity agents, and political allies overcame both legal and moral roadblocks to make fisticuffing a lively commercial enterprise. This work traces the history of prizefighting from clandestine bare-knuckle fights in eighteenth-century London to the vibrant, large-scale productions of modern Las Vegas 'fight nights.'
