It wasn’t really gripping me. It had compelled me along well enough and the writer had good descriptions of things but there were just other things I would rather be reading.

Listened on Audible. Probably has more appeal for someone interested in boxing, but the story was enjoyable nonetheless. 3.5 stars because the writing is good, the story is okay, but not particularly of interest to me, and overall it was good, but not amazing.
