Joe has of course every right to right a book, it's down to Joe Public if they buy it.
It is not just a boxing book as Joe has had one hell of a life and he's a nice guy to.
The title of the book apparently comes from a comment from Tyson in the gym rather than Joe trying to say he is the toughest in the world etc

The title comes from a time in the gym in new york. Tyson was bowling over sparring partners left right and centre yet he couldnt put Joe down, at the end of the final round (i dunno how many they sparred) tyson started yelling in the gym "this boy is the toughest white man on the planet" - hence the title.

Think I heard that from Joe himself during an interview on channel M.
