Let’s try again without typos: I just finished the book ā€œThe Dukeā€ the life & lies of Tommy Morrison by Carlos Acevedo, and god if just half of what his post fight/post HIV diagnosis is true? No words. Fascinating.I audibly gasped at times. Heartbreaking, incredible story. Jesus. https://t.co/Fjles7Aq7Q

I recant my earlier statement regarding the book ā€œThe Warā€ by Don Stradley. After being contacted privately I now have the proper context regarding the acknowledgments that upset me.Apologies to everyone associated with this book which truly is a ā€œMarvelousā€ and triumphant read.

I’ve never been a huge fan of Bernard Hopkins personality outside the ring but seeing him be humble while referencing when Joe Smith knocked him completely out of the ring is actually refreshing. #boxing 🄊

@DanCanobbio Dude you have to read ā€œwoke up this morningā€ by Steven Shiraz & Michael Imperioli. It’s an oral history season by season episode by episode. It’s hysterical and totally captivating. All behind the scenes types of stories. It made me rewatch the whole thing again for the 3rd time!
