{"product_id":"9780786469680","title":"Ray Arcel : A Boxing Biography","description":"\u003cp\u003eWithout Ray Arcel (1899-1994), the 20th century world of boxing would have been markedly different. The credibility of it as a sport would have been greatly lessened. Arcel's prominence is all the more interesting because he made his mark not as a fighter, promoter, or manager, but as a trainer. From Benny Leonard to Roberto Duran and Larry Holmes, Arcel stood in the corner for champions of every weight division that existed in his lifetime, a record that remains unequalled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e This biography chronicles Arcel's life inside the ring--and outside, where he was a highly secretive man who maintained relationships with some of the chief mob figures of his day. Through a wealth of information from Arcel's unpublished memoir, this work offers an extraordinary portrait of one of boxing's most influential and enigmatic figures.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"McFarland \u0026 Co Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49111884202211,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0764\/3758\/6147\/files\/9780786469680-1.jpg?v=1788487609","url":"https:\/\/usa.kinokuniya.com\/products\/9780786469680","provider":"Books Kinokuniya USA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
