    :goodWow!!!!!
    Ray Wheatley and Bryan Membrey have combined to produce the best mag I've ever seen - 60 pages and beautiful artwork on the career of Lionel Rose.
    It's fantastic.
    :happy
    And just $9.95. Talk about value for money.
    Well done Bryan, well done Ray.

    That's where I got mine. Penrith Plaza. Halfway thru it. I'm up to his fights with Ray Perez.
    Bloody good read for less than 10 bucks.
    Wheatley and Membrey have done a great job.:silly

    i dont doubt the info in there. but if the rest of the read is as insightful and imaginative as the title of the book, then it will be 'just' another boxing book..

    It's great - never knew about all the fights Lionel had in Japan after Harada or the top Americans - ronnie jones, garry garber etc he fought out here.
    Some of the tributes - barry michael, mike gibson, julia gillard, jack rennie etc bring a tear to the eye.
    well done guys
