About this listen

Belfast's Carl ‘The Jackal' Frampton MBE is no ordinary boxer. One of only three fighters from the British Isles to be named the Ring magazine Fighter of the Year, he has headlined sellout world championship bouts on both sides of the Atlantic, winning multiple world titles in the process. His dedicated army of fans have traversed the globe to be ringside throughout it all.

But Frampton's popularity far exceeds the traditional adulation for a sporting icon; he is regarded as a symbol of hope and unity by both sides of the sectarian divide in Northern Ireland.

In this captivating autobiography, Frampton reveals the most personal aspects of being a fighter: the fears and doubts, the exhilaration and devastation, the friendships and animosities. He also recounts for the first time his high-profile, acrimonious split with Barry McGuigan in devastating and revealing detail. Frampton speaks openly and passionately, not only about boxing, but about his country, how far it has come and the problems it faces. This is a uniquely intimate account of a true modern-day sporting great and a local hero like no other.

Love this book, very entertaining and honest story telling from Carl all from his early days right up to retirement. The bits about the McGuigan's was very juicy and pretty shocking at how they behaved, I did think very highly of Barry McGuigan however not so much now after hearing of their dodgy dealings.

One negative however is the readers voice I found slightly tedious at times but not enough to ruin it for me. Would have loved to have heard it in Carls own voice all the way through. All in all though a great listen, would recommend 100% if you are a boxing fan or from Northern Ireland, its a great story of one of our own heroes and now Legend

Great honest autobiography

the narrator had me in stiches, laughing. Unsure if it was meant to be intentionally funny but his delivery cracked me up.

good story.

The best autobiography I've read in the last 10 years and there's been plenty of competition

Sensational

A brilliant story, tremendous athlete and it’s very interesting to hear about his struggle. Always have been interested in him as I knew he was a Protestant but wore an Antrim jersey so I liked that about him.
I was listening to this to get the true version of what happened between the McGuigans but it was great to learn about his career.
Overall I’d recommend, nit picking but my only complaint was that I didn’t like that the narrator wasn’t himself.

What a story
