Sobre este producto
  • With opponents nicknamed Black Tiger, Ringo Starr, Kid Power, Captain Marvel, and JukeBox TimeBomb, a brother named Punish, an ex-NYSE trader as his financier, a promoter known as Captain Fiasco, an ex-Formula One engine fitter as his trainer, another trainer who fought in the Nigerian Biafra War, and a previous sporting life as a football goalkeeper, Proud Chinembiri, who named himself Kilimanjaro, after Africa's highest mountain, was destined to leave a fascinating story on the heavyweight boxing landscape.A giant goalminder turned nightclub bouncer turned prolific mugger turned prize fighter, Kilimanjaro won the Zimbabwe heavyweight boxing title in only his fifth professional fight and became the African champion in his seventh bout.Felix Houphouet-Boigny, the former Cote d'Ivoire president, fell in love with Kilimanjaro's boxing skills so much that he reportedly offered him Ivorian citizenship, public adulation, and a few visits to the presidential palace in Abidjan.Kilimanjaro was twenty minutes away from fighting Lennox Lewis in Crystal Palace, South London, when British boxing authorities cancelled the fight due to what they generously and euphemistically called a "medical issue."Proud Kilimanjaro: The Man Mountain is the definitive story of a man who abandoned a life of crime, changed sports, swept away all his domestic opponents, scaled the summit of African boxing, amassed fame and fortune, and lost almost all of it to a "traditional healer" who claimed to have a cure for his "medical issue."
