Trade Review
"De La Hoya's memoir reads fast and well. It reveals a man who is capable of far deeper sincerity than the "Golden Boy" who graces the podium at press conferences." -- CBS Sports "This memoir, his first literary glance in the rearview mirror, is a revealing and solid read." -- Los Angeles Times "An inspiring and motivating title ..., an entertaining description of the ins and outs of a boxing career, and a fascinating insight into a Latino hero." -- Criticas Magazine
