    It was a good read. But that may have been the only boxer bio I ever read.

    But I am not sure most people who admire Jake would want to know all that he fessed up to? Serial ****** (said he was impotent for a time unless raping), thought he murdered a guy during the course of a robbery, etc.

    I remember that he wrote that after the St. Valentine's beat down vs SRR, he could not leave the arena till oxygen was administered. But didn't want people to see that.

    I would like to know if anyone read Vikki's book??

    There is supposed to be all kinds of stuff there, including the rich and famous and powerful men she knew.

    Was Jake right about her cheating? Was he right to be paranoid?

    Or did she only do it after all his cheating?

    TYSON by Peter heller is a good read. Although mines a bit dated, it stops just before the Mathis fight

    ALI the life and times by Thomas Hauser is good too
