Nobody in world boxing has worn more hats than Canadian Russ Anber. And few have worn any of them with greater enthusiasm, pride or long-term success. Trainer of champions, gym owner, media personality, President of Boxing Quebec/Board, member of Boxing Canada, Olympic commentator, master hand-wrapper, legendary corner man and cut man, and founder and CEO of Rival Boxing Gear, Russ remains the ultimate boxing insider.
Recalling his 45-year career, Russ paints a poignant, unvarnished and often humorous picture of the boxing world based on his immense hands-on experience and personal relationships with some of the sport's most colorful and influential characters - everyone from famed trainer Angelo Dundee (Muhammad Ali's trainer) to legendary fighters like Roy Jones Jr. , Oleksandr Usyk, Vasiliy Lomachenko, Vinnie Curto, Otis Grant, Jean Pascal, Artur Beterbiev, Liam and Callum Smith, Deontay Wilder, and Sergio Martinez.
Unrivaled is more than a simple biography. It is a compelling and entertaining history lesson based on the candid and always entertaining musings of Russ Anber and one-on-one interviews with a who's who of boxing insiders, media personalities, and world boxing champions (past and present).
