Award-winning sports journalist Roy McHugh covered boxing in Pittsburgh from 1947 until his retirement in 1983.

Harry Greb, Billy Conn, Fritzie Zivic, Charley Burley, Sammy Angott and Teddy Yarosz are just a small sampling of the numerous greats receiving space in this book; not to mention stories involving many other colorful characters who helped make the local scene what it was during the Golden Age of the sport.
