Autoren-Porträt von Bobby Watts
Cyclone HartWicked Left Hook
This is the inspiring tale of one of the best middleweight boxers to ever come out of Philadelphia. Plagued with polio in his younger years, Eugene Hart took up boxing at the age of fourteen to build up his legs and to escape the widespread gang scene of his neighborhood. By the age of seventeen Eugene had become a force in the Pro circuit. Known for a very vicious left hook, and nicknamed "Cyclone" by the referee of one of his matches, Hart was famous for his nineteen fight knockout streak. Follow Cyclone from his days of training out of the PAL to becoming the third ranked middleweight boxer in his division.
This book is dedicated to the family and friends of Eugene Hart who have supported him throughout his life, career, and who continue to do so as he strives to give back to the city he loves with his programs at the Martin Luther King Center.
