"This is Dempsey, the beloved Manassa Mauler who will never lose his title in the hearts of millions of Americans.

This is his life, from the ragged, 130-pound kid with the squeaky voice who could "lick any man in the house....for a buck" to the king of the ring, collecting the biggest purse ever paid a fighter.

It's all here, told by the man himself: the raw early years, the broken marriages that made headlines, the famous "long count" Chicago fight, the "slacker" charges, the rollicking Hollywood days, the one fighter he feared, and the one he hated."
