Includes bibliographical references and index.
Summary:
"Without Ray Arcel (1899-1994), the 20th century world of boxing would have been markedly different. 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 trained 20 world champions from every weight division that existed in his lifetime, a record that remains unequalled. 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. An extraordinary portrait of one of boxing's most influential and enigmatic figures. Actor Robert De Niro portrayed Arcel in the 2016 film Hands of Stone, about Roberto Durán.
