“You’re booked” is a series of recommended sporting reads by international sports commentator, Ashley Morrison. An avid book reader and sports lover, these reads are curated from his personal collection of over 1500 sports books.
In the 1990’s Michael Watson was one of the top middleweight boxers in Britain. He had already fought and defeated future World Champion Nigel Benn, and lost to Chris Eubank, when he entered the ring for his second bout with Eubank. After being stopped in the 12th round he returned to his corner and collapsed. This book is as much about his life prior to that moment as it is his life after, and what he describes as his biggest fight of all. It is the tale of a remarkable man with incredible fight and spirit.
“The marathon training helped me regain the feeling that I had last had in the Black Lion pub in Plaistow, East London, during my weeks of training for the Eubank rematch. It all came back to me, how I used to train for a fight, and it inspired me to push harder and harder.”
