Just finished Domino Diaries, been reading it for a while since I tend to read e-books a little more slowly. But it was dope. BJB is one of my favorite boxing writers. This detailed his 10 years (on and off) living in Cuba talking to great Cuban boxers, investigating why some boxers turn down millions of dollars to defect from Cuba, while some take the money. Dope book, if you're interested in boxing and/or Cuba, def recommend it.
