>>16480098
The Gods of War (Analysis of all-time great fighters, makes an interesting argument for who the GOAT is)
Non-compromised Pendulum (deals with the psychology of boxing)
Undisputed Truth (Mike Tyson Autobiography)
Championship Fighting:Explosive Punching and Aggressive Defense (Jack Dempsey explains how to fight)
The Soul of a Butterfly (Muhammad Ali's poetry and boxing mindset)
Four Kings (History of the "Four Kings" era of boxing)
Joe Louis: Hard Times (Biography of Joe Louis)
If anyone knows a good biography of Sonny Liston I'd be interested to read it.

Nick Tosches, The Devil and Sonny Liston is kind of an offbeat biography. It's pretty good, definitely worth a read for someone with a reading list like yours.
