Fearless: The Story of George Chuvalo, Canada's Greatest Boxer


Overview

George Chuvalo only wanted one thing: to become a boxer. When Chuvalo stepped into the ring, he was fearless. In ninety-three professional fights between 1956 and 1979, boxing everyone from George Foreman to Muhammad Ali, he was never once knocked out. But this heavyweight boxing legend never had it easy. After losing many loved ones to drugs, Chuvalo has also become a role model out of the ring by speaking out and fighting against addiction. [Fry Reading Level - 4.8

An inspirational tale of a real, down to earth Canadian. --Eva Wilson Resource Links (02/01/2010)


For readers who may not have a particular interest in boxing, the story of George Chuvalo's life has more than enough drama and tragedy to make for an interesting read. For anyone with an interest in boxing, Fearless has many interesting details contained in text boxes imbedded within the story. --Suzanne Pierson Canadian Review of Materials (12/04/2009)
