- I'm reading the James "Quick" Tillis autobiog and am enjoying it. Amazon seem to be putting on at a heavily discounted price periodically - my copy, bought a couple of weeks ago, was under £3 although it is now back up to full price. Thought I'd mention it if anyone is checking.

- also, there seems to be a biog of Wilfredo Gomez out in May by Christian Giudice, the same guy who did the Roberto Duran biog. As I enjoyed the Duran book a lot, I'll be buying the Gomez one.

Now we just need a biography of Jorge Paez (in English)...
Thanks for the heads up on the Gomez biography, I've prw ordered it and am looking forward to reading.
My copy of the Gomez biog arrived a couple of days ago and I'm about a third of the way into it. Has anyone finished it yet? Am finding it a slightly uneven read so far - perhaps my expectations were too high as I really liked Guidice's biog of Duran.

Has anyone read '2 seconds from glory'?

Apparently it's amazing
