			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Maybe it’s because I’ve been reading a lot of deranged fiction lately (Bret Easton Ellis), and need to get the aggression out, or maybe it’s because I just really like boxing. Either way, I haven’t read a good sports book in awhile (about two months; read <a href="http://www.amazon.com/When-March-Went-Mad-Transformed/dp/0805091513/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;s=books&amp;qid=1274810839&amp;sr=8-1"><em>When March Went Mad</em></a> during March Madness), and I’m interested in reading a great book about boxing. Looking for suggestions.</p>
<p>Here are eight I pulled off Amazon. Leave insights in the comments, fellow fans of pugilist lit.</p>

<p>The show&#8217;s card featured white collar pugilists from some of (if not all of what&#8217;s left of) the big firms in the city dukeing it out in front of  a crowd that popped for tickets ranging from $125 to $10,000. The event raised money for <a href="http://www.agahozo-shalom.org/">Youth Village</a> in Rwanda and <a href="http://www.tuesdayschildren.org/">Tuesday&#8217;s Children</a>, which helps families of 9/11 victims.</p>
