"Mike Silver is the Sugar Ray Robinson of boxing writers--smooth, smart, powerful, and tough to beat. The good news is that you can step in the ring with him and not get hurt." --Jonathan Eig, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Ali: A Life and King: A Life "Lots of people know boxing, but not many understand it: Its spirit, its significance, its storied past and probable future. Mike Silver is one of the few. Anything he writes is essential reading for the true fan." --David Margolick, contributing editor at Vanity Fair and author of Beyond Glory: Joe Louis vs. Max Schmeling, and a World on the Brink Praise for The Arc of Boxing "Lively . . . Silver explored the magic, studied the history." Philadelphia Daily News "If you care about boxing . . . its future, its past, or both . . . then you have to read this book . . . thoroughly researched . . . articulately argued." Newsday "True aficionados, whether they ultimately agree with Silver or not, are sure to enjoy his book for its unmistakable knowledge and passion." The Ring, "Anyone interested in the pursuit of best practices and health-supporting sports decisions will find When In Doubt, Stop the Bout key to not just understanding the boxing world's history and how it is conducted today, but revised possibilities for a better sport in the future, all delivered in easily-understood discussions that any reader can readily absorb."

Synopsis
"Since the inception of the Marquess of Queensberry rules boxing has understood the need to be safer. While there have been some rule changes through the years, many have been like applying an 'enswell' to reduce swelling. In his latest book, When in Doubt Stop the Bout , Mike Silver asks the hard questions and offers serious and innovative solutions that will make the sport safer without diluting its primal appeal. Anyone who cares about boxing and the fighters who put themselves at risk should read this book."--Teddy Atlas, Hall of Fame trainer and boxing analyst In When in Doubt, Stop the Bout , renowned boxing historian Mike Silver presents a shocking exposé of the sordid underbelly of professional boxing, and uncovers the sport's criminally flawed infrastructure and those responsible for it. From compromised referees to poorly trained ringside physicians to an insidious cartel of "sanctioning organizations" approving dangerous mismatches, Silver lays bare the corruption, the negligence, and the incompetence that has made a dangerous sport even more dangerous. But aside from unmasking the chaotic mess that afflicts boxing, this book for the first time proposes groundbreaking practical solutions that will mitigate the danger and save lives.
