Four Kings: Leonard, Hagler, Hearns and Duran and the Last Great Era of Boxing: George Kimball: Amazon.co.uk: Books
Sounds good. What does the book have to say about Benitez?
My Girlfriend got it for me for Christmas, gonna start reading it tomorrow
Damn same here. My wife got it for me for Christmas so far very good Especially the part were Hagler was left out of the tournament that Don King controlled and basically rigged the whole tournament. What a dumbass
he has had a few mentions here and there starting from the 79 Leonard fight to when he fought the others - the main focus is on them thoughQuote:
