Book Update!



Hello Readers,

I have recently been making a committed effort to completing my first book - "Tactics of Kickboxing, Boxing and MMA Masters". I'm sure many of you will be pleased to hear that I have almost finished the writing phase and will soon be moving on to the considerations of photography.

While there is still some detail to work out, I can now give a little more insight into what the text is actually going to contain. The full text will detail the techniques of:

- 20 Fighters - including the 8 selected by readers at BloodyElbow and the Underground.

-Over 60 techniques, broken down in demonstrative photographs.

-Breakdowns not only of single techniques, but how fighters utilize them together to form a complete game. Such as:
- Roy Jones Jr.'s right hand forward guard and the many offensive options which spring from it

- Giorgio Petrosyan's series of counters after faking a jab to illicit a response.

- Buakaw Por. Pramuk's use of the teep to land more telling strikes later in the match.

And many more!

The book will be sold through www.FightsGoneBy.com and will include my own translated version of the 1947 Russian book "Tactics of the Foreign Masters". The layout of this rare boxing text was the inspiration for my own book, and there is much that can be learned from it.

Hope all is going well,
Jack
