AVAILABLE IN STORES FEB. 19TH 2008 ($25.00)
Evander Holyfield is “The Real Deal.” A cruiserweight and heavyweight champion, Olympic medalist, and the only boxer ever to become world heavyweight champion four times, Holyfield is truly one of the greatest fighters of all time.
BECOMING HOLYFIELD is more than just an autobiography, it is a collection of stories from Holyfield’s life that illustrate how others can be their best—and avoid some of the mistakes he made on his journey to the top.
But as Holyfield explains, his success didn’t come solely from his boxing skills—it was born from the lessons he learned as a boy and still carries with him into the ring today. In BECOMING HOLYFIELD: A Fighter’s Journey (Atria Books; February 19, 2008; $25.00; Hardcover; 1-4165-3486-5) the legendary boxer presents a candid and riveting account of his life in and outside the ring.
