    I'd wait to be honest. Stonehands is working on a Murderer's Row book and it should be awesome.

    Is that the Harry Otty one? It's pretty good.

    I actually gave that book away a few yrs ago. Didnt like it that much.
    Just got Rosenfelds book on Burley which also covers the Murders row but didnt start it yet.
    Just finished Durans new book now im halfway through Tysons book.

    Just picked up 'Hard Leather' a history of Cuban boxing. And so far, I'm enjoying it.

    That's some good news!...Is it new stuff or a compilation of his work on the Row?

    I think it's a mix of the two.
