Canastota, New York, at the epicenter of Upstate New York's rich
boxing heritage, is home to the International Boxing Hall of Fame.
Having produced some of boxing's most prominent pugilists, including
Carmen Basilio and Billy Backus, the area has also hosted many
legendary fighters, including Jack Britton, Harry Greb, Sam Langford
and Tommy Ryan. Many boxing dreams have come true here through title
fights and epic ring rivalries. Author Mark Allen Baker tells the
story of those "thunder gods of the ring" and the fights that made
them famous, finally settling the score: Canastota is "Title Town,
USA."
