is this a new one or the one that come out last year? i would assume it's the same one.

got it last Christmas and although it seems quite good, i've just jumped into it at various points, never really read it from start to finish.

if u like boxing books i recommend Chris Eubank. Read that cover to cover in 3 days, it was a great weekend an 'all.

i read the whole of ricky hattons book last christmas. I managed to finish it, even though it wasn't a good read. pretty much the same basic structuring throughout every chapter. Now the chris Eubank book on the other hand was exceptional. it was full of charisma, philosophies, inside information and a real sense of truth throughout. classic!

Johnny Nelson's book is a good read, Amir Khan's OK- I got it at the Bolton retail park for £3.99.

I'm reading Eubank's right now. It's awesome!

You can tell all the wording is pure Eubank as well, nobody wrote it for him.

I read Ricky's in 2006. It was repetitive and predictable.

Ricky's book was strangely enjoyable though entirely predictable and repetitive.

Now reading Dancing Shoes is Dead by Gavin Evans, a gift from Carlos about 4 years ago, only just got going with it despite several attempts.

I have Tapia, Jack Johnson, Archie Moore and Sonny Liston queuing up for my attention.
