THE JINX SPINKS BIOGRAPHER – JACK HIRSCH
In a real treat of a bonus podcast, we get to know a
stalwart of the US boxing circuit, the one and only Jack Hirsch.
Jack fell in love with boxing as a youngster but after a
spell as an amateur and getting beaten up by world middleweight champions in
sparring, he realised his calling was on the other side of the ropes.
Witness to some of the most important fights in history,
Jack talks us through watching Muhammad Ali and Roberto Duran in New York, his
move into journalism and getting to know the legends of the sport. One of
those, the great light-heavyweight and heavyweight Michael ‘The Jinx’ Spinks is
the subject of Jack’s first book. The process of writing that is a fascinating
listen, as is his opinions on boxing journalism today. Enjoy!
