Inhalt:

Fight or Die tells the remarkable story of one of America's best-loved boxers, Vinny Paz. Born Vincent Pazienza in 1962 in the mean streets of Cranston, Rhode Island, Vinny rose to become a champion in two weight divisions over a twenty-year career. Here, his best friend captures all the pain and sweat of the boxing world, with the rich traditions and the grit of Rhode Island's Italian-American community-and with the incredible odds this boxer overcame again and again. Vinny lost much of his money in aRhode Island banking scandal, butendured. Known for his uncompromising fighting style, he almost died from dehydration after one fight. And then there was the car crash that broke Vinny's neck but not his resolve: Despite a doctor's prediction that he would never fight again, he returned to the ring-the only life he'd ever known.A moving testament to the power of the human spirit, Fight or Die recounts in arresting detail Vinny Paz's drama-tic victories inside the ring-but it is his victory outside the ring that will inspire all readers.
