By: Geoffrey Beattie

Product Description
Prince Naseem is the one of most charismatic boxers the sport has ever seen.

The Shadows of Boxing visits Prince Naseem's roots, chronicles the contrasting fortunes of the hard men of Ingle's gym, and looks at how the Hamed family have coped with the incredible pressures of fame. It also features the first major interview with Naz since his defeat at the hands of Marco Antonio Barrera.

CUSTOMER REVIEW:
Proof That Fighter Biographies Should Be Made AFTER Retireme
This biography prematurely tries to make Mr. Hamed sound like a ring legend. This was sometime after he came off the canvas twice to knock out Kevin Kelly but long before Marco Antonio Barerra exposed him as a flashy, one-dimensional fighter who couldn't adapt. It's really not worth reading unless Hamed's win streak ends up being a thing of the past, and he's reduced to being a journeyman. Then read it for a good laugh. And pick up James "Quick" Tillis's book too, if you want to be more amused.

by James Slater: Naseem Hamed was a ringside fan last night, as his good friend Ryan Rhodes won the British light-middleweight title in London. And though he is almost universally considered a retired ex-fighter, Naz, with a glint in his eye and a ready smile, said this is not actually the case. Speaking to Sky Sports' Adam Smith moments after his friend Rhodes had KO'd Gary Woolcombe, "The Prince" had the following things to say. • ?Prince? Naseem Hamed vs Marco Antonio Barrera
