    You need to read the rest.

    The Jeffries book covers Fitz's subsequent fights in as much detail, and the Johnson book (part 1) covers Johnson's fight with Fitz.

    It should be seen as one complete book in my opinion. For example, you don't find out everything that happens to Jon Snow in the first book of A Song of Ice and Fire.

    That would be great if my budget stretched that far to buy a series of books. I only said it can't be considered the definitive biography on Fitz because so much of his career isn't covered.

    The only Jon Snow I know of is the one who reads the news. :nut

    Uhhh, you do know you are addressing a guy who has written arguably the best book on Bob Fitzsimmons right?

    I stopped reading Muscle and Mayhem when it claimed that Lavigne trained Georges Carpentier at his Paris school. Absolutely untrue. Carpentier hadnt even been to Paris for the first time in his life by the time Lavigne was gone.
