Froch Vs Groves rematch.

[peoffrey]

A David Haye autobiography? I seriously couldn't think of anything worse or more boring!

He writes a column for one of our magazines and is quite a rum character in many ways. He's often being interviewed on TV shows etc. I find Froch boring.

Bold statement that!

His record up until the Froch fight was flawless and he's stepped up to every challenge he's faced. He's got a good personality too and seems quite intelligent. I really like him.

Completely random but can anyone recommend a good boxing autobiography? Chris Eubank seemed the obvious name but there's quite a few to choose from. I was thinking perhaps David Haye but I want a boxer who really led a life too.

Hands of stone - Roberto Duran. Also another good book is Four Kings about Duran, Leonard, Hearns and Hagler.

yeah they are both good, but loads of old ones I've enjoyed, Norma Mailer The Fight about Ali v foreman is very good. The Great White Hopes about all the white boxers they tried to get to defeat Jack Johnson and i thought The Paddy and the Prince about Naz and Ingle was great
