It's that time of year again...Hugman's Yearbook is out

 

I know many of you will have this down as a guaranteed stocking filler for yourself this Christmas - and if you haven't, you really should.

The 26th edition of Barry J. Hugman's The British Boxing Board of Control Boxing Yearbook is out today.

If it isn't bigger than ever, I'd certainly be surprised - it feels heavier than past editions, for sure.

If you're a boxing fan unaware of the Yearbook then you're missing out.  It includes:

- full career records of all current British-based boxers

- potted biographies and annual records for all the 'world' champs from the big four boards

- all British Area, English, Celtic, British, Commonwealth, European and world title bouts in 2008-9

- a comprehensive amateur section

- and the omnipresent 'much, much more'

Barry's book is published by Mainstream Publishing and retails at £18.99.
