I know trust me I do a lot of reading.
I have so many damn boxing books and magazines pretty soon I'm gonna need a extra room in my house to store them.

With reading like anything else you gotta look at the source and also where they got their info. from.
Like when I was at the WBHoF and I met Allen Rosenfeld who lived with Charley Burley and I had a chance to go thru the book he wrote on Burley. I mean he said a lot of things you hear about Burley are true but also a lot of things that are said a re stretched out at times.
So like they say you gotta take everything with a little pinch of salt.
I mean just look at Marciano and that whole ordeal about him loosing a fight when he fought under another name.
No matter how much you read now you'll never know the truth.
To me the farthest back I go is 50's after that it get's even more shady and more unclear of what really went on. In the end I guess it's all about how you view it and if you want to believe what you read or not.
