Isn't that the book about Duran, Haglar, Leonard and Hearns?

[Scott9945]

While I wasn't a fan of the author (George Kimball), every comment I've ever heard about the book was that it was excellent.

[The Surgeon]

Ive got it, only read it the once though. Wasnt a massive fan of it tbh with u, over rated and not a patch on many of the other boxing books out there

I enjoyed it because there's not a book dedicated to Marvin Hagler so it was the closest thing I could get.

And in fairness i read it right after i read Hands of Stone (Duran being my favourite of the 4 kings) one of the best boxing books ive come across!

[SBleeder]

I've read it twice and thoroughly enjoyed it.

It is a little pro-Leonard and anti-Duran in my opinion.

Agreed on that

I've got it and I disagree with the people saying it wasn't very good I thought it was an excellent read

I'd agree that it's a bit overrated. It's a good book, a good account of the whole era but not the masterpiece it's made out to be.
