Thomas Hauser

10/02/2019
Overview
Each year, readers, writers, and critics alike look forward to Thomas Hauser’s newest collection of articles about the contemporary boxing scene. Reviewing his 2018 collection, <i>Booklist</i> proclaimed, “This is Hauser in a nutshell: compassion, character, and context. As always, an annual delight.”<br> <br> <i>A Dangerous Journey</i> continues Hauser’s tradition of excellence, turning his award-winning investigative reporting skills on the scandal surrounding the use of illegal performance enhancing drugs and the failures of corrupt and incompetent state athletic commissions. Hauser also takes readers into Canelo Alvarez’s dressing room in the hours before and after his rematch against Gennady Golovkin, the biggest fight of the year, and offers in-depth portraits of boxing’s biggest stars—past and present—as well as reflections on fight-related curiosities ranging from Ronda Rousey to David and Goliath.<br> <br> Thirty-five years ago, Hauser began writing about boxing with his superb <i>The Black Lights</i>, which has long been regarded as a boxing classic. He only gets better.
