5.0 out of 5 stars Unclaimed Destiny: The Heart of A Champion - A MUST READ!
Unclaimed Destiny is the extremely intriguing story of Rusty Rosenberger, 1979 New Jersey state middleweight boxing champion. The book is an auto-biography detailing Rusty's early career as an amateaur fighter, and his tumultuous relationship with international boxing hall of fame manager, Lou Duva, whose managed world champions such as Evander Holyfield and Pernell Whitaker.Duva, however, allegedly was not always the type of manager who had his fighters' best interest in mind. Rusty explains how Lou Duva was able to gain his trust, only to exploit and manipulate his fighting career by persuading him to take two mysterious pills before a big fight in Giants Stadium in 1979. The result of the fight left Rusty with permanent damage to his right eye, thus ending his chances of becoming middleweight champion of the world.The latter part of the story tells how Rusty was able to pick himself back up, continue boxing, and forge a career out of hard work and determination, all while being a family man, and raising six children with his wife, at his home in Niles, OH.Rusty invented a workout program called "body-boxing". He trains men and women who want an intense cardiovascular workout, learn self-defense, burn fat and gain muscle, through boxing; but without the cuts, broken noses, and brain damage that comes with taking punches to the facial area and head.This book is a must read for boxing fans and sports fans alike. You will recognize many of the names and places cited in the text, especially if you are a fight fan.
3.0 out of 5 stars Sometimes all you need is a hero
The autobiography of champion boxer Rusty Rosenberger is a must-read for fans of the sport, but even more important, this candid tale offers our cynical world a real hero. Rosenberger may have been knocked down, but not out.In Unclaimed Destiny: Heart of a Champion, Rosenberger declares his destiny was to win. By all accounts, the 1979 New Jersey Middleweight Boxing Champion should have won the World Title. Having blown away the competition in a fabulous career rise, he suddenly fell from fame. His story describes a shocking betrayal by the boxing manager he trusted. Two mysterious pills were all it took to change the outcome of history and one man's world.Rosenberger never managed to really to get his game back after Lou Duva drugged him. A series of physical and emotional hardships plagued him for years, until he turned his skills to teaching boxing for fitness, coining the Boxercise fitness craze that swept the nation in the eighties. Then he decided to tell his story.While it doesn't seem unusual that a fighter's game can be rigged, it's surprising that an amoral manager would trip his own racehorse, felling a young man's promising career in it's prime. From the standpoint of the "pen being mightier than the sword," one hopes that Rosenberger has managed to eviscerate Lou Duva in return.Rosenberger's message come through - don't let the turkeys get you down. His tale unashamedly bares his warrior's soul, proving himself a real contender, a modern-day hero we can believe in.Rosenberger's unpretentious writing style makes for a quick, refreshing read in 156 pages.
