  • On Modernity, Identity and White-Collar Boxing. Phd
    From Rookie to Rocky? On Modernity, Identity and White-Collar Boxing Edward John Wright, BA (Hons), MSc, MA Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. September, 2017 Abstract This thesis is the first sociological examination of white-collar boxing in the UK; a form of the sport particular to late modernity. Given this, the first research question asked is: what is white-collar boxing in this context? Further research questions pertain to social divisions and identity. White- collar boxing originally takes its name from the high social class of its practitioners in the USA, something which is not found in this study. White- collar boxing in and through this research is identified as a practice with a highly misleading title, given that those involved are not primarily from white-collar backgrounds. Rather than signifying the social class of practitioner, white-collar boxing is understood to pertain to a form of the sport in which complete beginners participate in an eight-week boxing course, in order to compete in a publicly-held, full-contact boxing match in a glamorous location in front of a large crowd. It is, thus, a condensed reproduction of the long-term career of the professional boxer, commodified for consumption by others. These courses are understood by those involved to be free in monetary terms, and undertaken to raise money for charity. As is evidenced in this research, neither is straightforwardly the case, and white-collar boxing can, instead, be understood as a philanthrocapitalist arrangement. The study involves ethnographic observation and interviews at a boxing club in the Midlands, as well as public weigh-ins and fight nights, to explore the complex interrelationships amongst class, gender and ethnicity to reveal the negotiation of identity in late modernity.

  • The Toughman Contest) Kathy Dobie
    Harper's Magazine, Jan 2002 Arms and the man: Saturday night in West Virginia. (Letter From Appalachia). (the Toughman Contest) Kathy Dobie. I've heard some people call the Toughman Contest "redneck boxing," though not, of course, the rednecks themselves. If they called it anything other than its proper name, I believe they would call it a good time. The Toughman Contest is a truly amateur boxing contest, a competition for nonprofessionals: no one can enter who has won more than five amateur fights in five years, and most of the contestants have never fought anywhere besides a schoolyard or a bar. The fighters wear protective head and groin gear and box with 16-ounce gloves, and each bout consists of three one-minute rounds. There are judges, ring girls (often from the local strip club), and a cash prize. The winner is declared "The Toughest Man in Town." On any given month you can log on to the Toughman website and find at least three or four, and sometimes six or seven, contests being held in different parts of the country--places like Lubbock, Texas; and St. Clairsville, Ohio; Fort Pierce, Florida; Macon, Georgia; Enid, Oklahoma; and Fort Wayne, Indiana. The contests are held in coliseums and high school auditoriums, fairgrounds, casinos, and racetracks. And every winter, the world championship, a glitzy affair, is broadcast on cable television with as much hammy acting as a World Wrestling Federation extravaganza. The bold red-and-black posters advertising the event always ask the same thing: "HOW TOUGH ARE YOU? If You're TOUGH ENOUGH, Sign Up Now!" And then they give the same warning: "WIMPS NEED NOT APPLY!" I first heard of Toughman when a friend, who had photographed one of the smaller contests in Detroit, told me that the crowd had hated an Arab-American fighter, calling out "camel jockey" and "sand nigger," and that one of the ring girls was so skinny she was booed every time she took the stage.

    March 2, 2008 - Sunday Teams Announced; Name Them. And Such. Okay, we now have our final field of 18, which seemed like a good enough number. There will be three teams of six this time around, with the lowest-scoring team each week voting out a member. Oh, and please be cautioned that a surprising number of players haven't yet subscribed to the blog, and one (Robin Zimmer) hasn't even added the blog as a friend...and appears to have rejected us when we offered the hand of friendship in her direction. She filled out the 15-question thing, but apparently doesn't know we have our own site...? Maybe...? Anyway, teammates of hers: it's your problem now, homies. Like last year when the four teams were asked to make titles for themselves based on the four directions, this year the three teams will incorporate the primary colors in their team names. Talk amongst yourselves to decide a team name, and when any member of your team sends us a message with a team name, that'll be it. Cool? Alright then. For your convenience, I have the teams now split on our top friends list: the red team, followed by me, then the yellow team, followed by Ryan, then the blues. Note that only five reds are present, since that's Robin's team. Okay, so that should be all the minutiae I have to deal with. Let's show you freaks your teams, as decided by my trusty dice rolls: RED TEAM Kim Brake Cory Funk Jason Harber Josh Mitchell Marisa (I'm going to need a last name for you, if that's alright) Robin Zimmer YELLOW TEAM Patrick Kozicky Carrie Metz Blair Ross Zach Samuel Perry Thrun Brienne Zimmer BLUE TEAM Leif Bierly Sarah Bizek Rachel Dwyer Samantha Fronek Oliver Thrun John Youker Look good? If not, blame the dice, beeotch.
