It is incredible!
Wasn't there a Frenchman who won every French title from LW to HW? Carpentier or something like that, I think he fought for the world HW title at least once...

Thats great, i may well grab a copy...
Does it include much detail of his training?
I really like that in a biography, when i get to see how my favourite fighters trained....Then i can compare it against other fighters training regimens and establish how much of their fighting prowesds was worked for and how much was god given.

Robinson turned pro at age 18 and fought at 135 for about a year, then moved up to welterweight. Fought for his first title at welter.
