    Its not about sales, the guy is a millionaire. You think Tapia, Chavez, Atals, Cullough, Tszyu made these books to get rich? No. The reason i acutally made this topic is cause it got me thinking of somone i know thats in the sytem. And i've thought about sending him either Chavez or Tapia's book, since they have been throught the system themselfs and got their life back together and im sure their book is a great inspirational book aswell. And i got to thinking, Hopkins should have a book made of his life, he's been through a lot and he too can help people to have a positive outlook on life no matter where they may be or what situation they may be in.

      Hopkins is a no-name. It wouldn't be a big deal.

      He's told all the boxing websites his story anyway over the last few years.

        Jesus Chavez isn't any bigger. They got money so this book isn't really about getting rich. I just think it'd be a good book, more then anything, its like an inspirational book to say he did it, so can i, not to so oh, they are going to dream of becoming a middleweight champion but just be succesfull and not fall back into the trap that got them there in the first place.

          Yeah, he has a book out, called "mi vida loca." Reason im asking is say you know sombody in prison or ya, you want to get them to realize that other have been in their shoes and have walked the same line as them, been to pen, been locked up for years but came out and made somthing out of themselves. I think its good for these type of books to be released especially when you got fighters like Hopkins, Chavez, Tapia who have been through so much, that i think a book about them some troubled kid or adult can read there story and hopfully help them see the light or just keep them focused of there goal.

          I was looking at the weight in pics/article at newsfight and i seen Hopkins holding the hands up of Marquez and Jaca and man it just hit me that here a great fighter thats been through so much and he's happy which is good. He had some trouble but came out alright, and i think his story like the others are always good for the youngsters and older generation.




          Its not about being self centered, his story may help or inspire sombodys life.
          to be honest though,its not usually the case is it?
