Beschreibung:
Christian Giudice was born in Haddonfield, NJ. He currently lives in Charlotte, NC and teaches English at Harper Middle College High School. A Villanova graduate, Christian has written Hands of Stone: The Life and Legend of Roberto Duran, whose subject was the focus of a motion picture, Beloved Warrior: The Rise and Fall of Alexis Arguello and A Fire Burns Within: The Miraculous Journey of Wilfredo Gomez. Christian is also the author of the forthcoming book Macho Time: The Meteoric Rise and Tragic Fall of Hector Camacho (Hamilcar Publications 2020).
Hector Camacho lived fast, and his fists flew even faster in the ring. Handsome, flamboyant, and outspoken, Camacho electrified the boxing world of the 1980s. Shouting his mantra, "Macho Time!", he beat some of the best fighters of his generation, including Ray "Boom Boom" Mancini and Rafael "Bazooka" Limon. But his high-speed life caught up with him eventually--and tragically--when he was shot dead outside a nightclub in Puerto Rico at the age of fifty.
