4.0 out of 5 stars Good general history of the lightweight division, September 13, 2007

This review is from: Lightning Strikes: The Lives and Times of Boxing's Lightweight Heroes (Hardcover)

There are several fighters featured in this book that were interesting enough in and out of the ring to warrant books of their own. Freddie Welsh, Benny Leonard, Roberto Duran, Barney Ross, just to name a few. But as far as being a general history of the lightweight division this is good.
