Article about Chinese Boxing in the latest New Yorker

Post by emile »

There's a long piece about the development of boxing in China, focusing on Zou Shiming. It's obviously written for a general readership and has a few parts that won't read well to those knowledgeable about amateur boxing, but there is a lot of interesting stuff about Chinese athletic culture and Zou's background. Well worth a read.
