I read his book years ago, very raw and gritty. Lots of four letter words. It's a worthwhile read. He comes across as a very tough and badass man

I've read a lot on it, he was more likely guilty from what I've seen and the guy was far from being an angel; he was prosecuted for crime and armed robbery a few time prior to "THE" case. Also, he was rated as on his decline by the Ring Magazine at the time, falling drastically after losing most of his last matches.

MEdias propaganda + an excellent song from a known author = damn effective.
