The Gator: A hero boxer without a leg

I have come across the book "Tale of the Gator" by Fitzgerald. "The book recounts the life of Craig "The Gator" Bodzianowski starting with a tough childhood in Chicago. The book then takes the reader through Bodzianowski's climb through the boxing ranks, up to his motorcycle accident where his left leg had to be amputated. Amazingly, Bodzianowski made a miraculous comeback to the ring with a cutting edge prosthetic leg and a world title shot. Bodzianowski is not only a credit to boxing, but has managed to raise the expectations of amputees on how to live a better quality life. This book should serve as an inspiration to all readers, not just boxing buffs." http://images.amazon.com/images/P/0966726960.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg Do you know more about this boxer? He had a very good record: http://www.boxrec.com/boxer_display.php?boxer_id=002071 Do you know of other similar cases? I know of two other cases. Valery Brumel was an Olympic champion in high-jumping. After an accident that had led to an amputation of his both feet, he successfully competed and became a champion of the USSR. Alexei Mares'ev was a hero fighter pilot in WWII. After a crash that had caused him to spend several days crawling in a winter forest, he lost both of his legs. He persevered, and came back to be a succesfull fighter pilot. He was later recognized as the Hero of the USSSR.
