Summary:
Muhammad Ali and Sugar Ray Leonard had four major things in common:
they both won an Olympic Gold Medal, they were superlative boxers,
they had charismatic personalities, and they were both trained and
managed by the legendary Angelo Dundee. An Italian-American from
south Philadelphia who fainted at the sight of his own blood, Dundee
went on to become the most famous cut-man, trainer, and manager in
the history of boxing. This insider’s account throws the spotlight on
three exceptional men who led lives beyond the realm of the ordinary.
Drawing on personal interviews with the protagonists and numerous
other boxing greats, this is an extraordinary look at three of the
greatest individuals from the history of the sport.
