Reading this was a bittersweet experience, as it comes just a few years before Bruno’s highly publicised mental health crises - which thankfully he appears to have moved past now.

It’s not going to win the Pulitzer Prize, but this is a solid biography with great inputs from the man himself. Frank comes across really well here, which is hardly surprising, and I especially enjoyed the run down of all of his fights, with Frank giving us an insight into his thoughts and feelings on each one.
