Article below on Emile's biography, author Ron Ross speaks about what they hoped to achieve with the book. More to follow from Emile himself.
There is a link to the book's website and Emile's Facebook page at the end of the article for anyone interested. I recommend the book, it deals with the Peret fight in a sensitive manner and gives more insight into Emile's private life/views.

Told him I'd post the link to try and get hits for his Facebook and book site, chance to add a living legend to your friend list
Good stuff, Diddly!
I taught you well.
Emile was a great fighter and a very interesting story.

have recently read the book and it is a great insight into a boxer who seems to have been forgotten by many people compiling their all time great lists...the book portrays a fabulous human being whose personality was so distant from the stereotypical boxers persona...well worth a read.
