    Not sure there are that many autobiographies, most I've seen are biographies.

    Jimmy Wilde! But it's a fair old wedge you'd have to part with (30 odd quid)

    I think Calzaghe's is average, it was written too early IMO.

    He'd not even retired, never mind given himself the chance to reflect on his career, both the good and the bad.

    It feels weird reading it now, with him sounding scared of Jeff Lacy, and his dad calling him a chicken for being worried about the fight :lol:

    Hatton's book is better, well, the updated version certainly was anyway.
