Floyd Patterson by Alan H Levy

Floyd Patterson delivered a number of knockout punches during his Hall of Fame career, but it might have been the fights he won beyond the boxing ring that made him great. This biography covers Patterson's meteoric rise as boxer while giving equal attention to the boxer's life away from sport.
