    In addition to that one, each of them have their own biography with Leonard and Duran having autobiographies. I have the Duran and Hearns other books on kindle. The hearns bio was taking too long to drop so I just bought the kindle version. The Sorcery At Caesars is about the Leonard /hagler fight. I had no idea that Marvin had a coke problem in his career lol.

    Ah man I’m just about to start reading Hands of Stone! I love Duran but I’m worried I’m going to think he’s a total bastard after reading it.

    wtf I didn’t know that about Hagler. He always seemed the type to do his own thing and focus on his boxing, not the type to fall into a coke habit. That’s pretty crazy, I guess it was the 80s though.

      Lineal 160 champ is not a good win?

      I don`t have to watch film, I watched fights.

            So she moved from her predominantly black country to a predominantly white country, to get a better job, and some of the natives complained about her being black?

            I wonder what would happen if a white woman moved to Kenya to be a reporter? I wonder if some of the natives would complain about a white woman being a reporter in their predominantly black country?

            How sad it must be to see victimization everywhere lol.
            You're a racist piece of ****. Go **** yourself.

              It all makes sense though. He had to be on something to give Sugar Ray bigger gloves, 12 rounds and a bigger ring just to get a higher pay day lol.

                Lennox got iced, Hagler lost close and disputable decisions.

                    I think guys can be like that sometimes, I know I can be -

                    'OK whatever, give him whatever he wants, I will still beat that ass'

                    That was probably what he was thinking. Like spotting a guy some points in a game to 10 in basketball.

                    I wonder when he realized 'oh sh.it I should have negotiated more'

                      Remember that Hearns won titles all the way up to Light Heavyweight before you write him off as just a Welterweight.
