History’s most famous boxingbrothers—heavyweight championsLeon and Michael Spinks—foughttheir way out of the projects, tookon legends like Ali and Tyson, andmade millions of dollars. One brotherretired in luxury, the other foundhimself strung-out, back on thestreets.septemberOne Punch from thePromised LandLeon Spinks, Michael Spinks, and theMyth of the Heavyweight TitleJohn Florio and Ouisie Shapiro978-0-7627-8300-7 ■ September 2013$26.95 US/$29.95 CAN ■ World English ■ Cloth6 x 9 ■ 288 pp ■ 12/CTN16-page b&w photo insert ■ Lyons <strong>Press</strong>SPORTS & RECREATIONLeon and Michael Spinks fought their way out of the North St. Louis projects, won Olympic gold, took on the legends ofthe ring, and became the first brothers to win heavyweight titles. Through interviews, eyewitness accounts, and stories fromfriends, relatives, and boxing figures, One Punch from the Promised Land is the first-ever portrait of the Spinks brothers andhow even the championship of the world left them just shy of their American Dream. It examines their impact on mainstreamAmerica and the underclass from which they came—and it shows the effect the ghetto had on their lives: Leon never separatedhimself from the project where they grew up, and Michael spent his life running from it. The book traces their divergent paths,revealing how introverted Michael found luxurious seclusion in Delaware; and reckless Leon, overwhelmed by fame and fortune,was reduced to odd jobs—including sweeping the stands at the arena where he’d fought on his way to the title.John Florio is a freelance writer and the author of Sugar Pop Moon.
