About this audiobook
Darius King was born to fight.
Abandoned by his mother and raised in foster care by Miss Jenkins, the only woman who ever stayed, Darius grows up angry on the streets of Brooklyn. Then a homeless man outside the liquor store sees something in him: a great right hook, and a name that sounds like a prophecy. Under old Marvin's hands, a street kid becomes a 12-0 knockout artist, one fight away from a title.
Then, on the night before it all, Darius forgets the only lesson that mattered.
Decades later, broke and 46, working with his hands to keep his family afloat, Darius watches his son's dream of becoming a doctor slip away for lack of money. He has one way left to keep his promise: step back into the ring against an undefeated champion half his age.
A story about fathers and sons, second chances, and what it really takes to be great. Love. Protect. Provide.
