Resultados para "Ring" en Deportes

En el corazón desgastado de un gimnasio de barrio, donde el sudor se mezcla con los sueños, un padre y sus dos hijos luchan por conseguir llegar a la cima. Él entrena, ellos pelean.

La sconvolgente indagine su Marco Pantani, il mito del ciclismo morto due volte. Per Pantani, eroico vincitore del Tour de France nel 1998, il mondo crolla quando viene accusato di doping il 5 giugno dell'anno dopo, appena prima di terminare un Giro d'Italia che l'avrebbe visto trionfare ancora. Il Pirata, derubato del suo onore, cade allora in una spirale di droga e psicofarmaci che - secondo il giudice - ne causano la morte per overdose nel 2004. Ma i genitori di Marco e l'amico e giornalista Davide De Zan non si arrendono: grazie a un'indagine minuziosa e ostinata, portano alla luce una verità ancor più sconvolgente.

Ha sublimato le idee dei suoi allenatori, a cominciare da Pep Guardiola, e ha reso ancora più grandi i suoi compagni, Xavi e Messi in testa.

The Boxing Kings tells the story of the heavyweight title in the days when it was a defining institution in the United States. Author Paul Beston places special emphasis on those champions who held a central place in American culture beyond just in the boxing ring, including John L. Sullivan, who made the title a commercial property; Jack Johnson, who in 1908 became the first black man to claim the title; Joe Louis, whose contributions to racial tolerance and social progress transcended even his greatness in the ring; and many more.
