Jake La Motta - the Raging Bull of the ring was as wild, dangerous and unpredictable as his fighting namesake. Jake would attack, attack and attack again until someone was on the floor - and he was only down once in 106 violent fights. Raised in the slums of New York's Bronx he fought his way to the top and for years refused to co-operate with the Mob. Eventually he had to because he knew he deserved a title shot and throwing a fight was the only way to get it. Later he defied the Mob again by testifying against them. "I'm not scared of that scum" he snarled. Jake won the world middleweight title then lost it to Sugar Ray Robinson in the fight called the Valentine's Day massacre. Jake went his own way, went to jail, served time on a chain gang then re-invented himself as a Cabaret act. His life story 'Raging Bull' starring Robert De Niro is one of the best American films ever made. He lived the American Dream and took the beatings that went it. An amazing life - a stunning read not to be missed.
