‎Il pugno invisibile. Essere Giovanni Parisi‎

‎ill., br. Domenica 2 ottobre 1988, giornata conclusiva delle Olimpiadi di Seul. Sale sul ring un ventenne, si chiama Giovanni Parisi. Convocato all'ultimo minuto, è lì a giocarsi la medaglia d'oro dei pesi piuma. Il mondo assiste al miliardesimo ko della storia del pugilato, ma anche agli occhi più attenti sfugge il pugno che dopo 1 minuto e 41 secondi manda al tappeto Daniel Dumitrescu. Il pugno non si vede, sembra un'illusione, neanche a riguardarlo al rallentatore si capisce da dove parte. Quel pugno parte da molto lontano. Giovanni Parisi nasce a Vibo Valentia nel 1967, a tre anni si trasferisce con la famiglia a Voghera. Un'infanzia faticosa, segnata dalla povertà e da un padre assente. La madre cresce i tre figli insegnando loro la dignità e la determinazione, due doti che serviranno molto a Giovanni. La sua strada sarà il pugilato, sudore, fatica, pugni presi e dati per arrivare al traguardo: il successo sportivo e la serenità di una famiglia, con la moglie Silvia e tre figli. Caparbio, forte, coraggioso Parisi credeva di essere invincibile, ma l'avversario che lo ha sconfitto è stato un incidente d'auto, nel marzo del 2009. "Il pugno invisibile" è la storia di Giovanni Parisi, del suo mondo e delle persone che lo hanno abitato. Interviste, descrizioni, piccole follie e istanti compongono una biografia che è il romanzo di uno dei più grandi campioni italiani degli ultimi anni.‎

‎Tyson Mike‎

‎True. La mia storia‎

‎ill., br. Per Mike la boxe non è mai stata uno sport, o un divertimento. È stata questione di vita o di morte, in cui l'allenamento duro, spietato, e la rabbia segnavano la differenza tra un'esistenza misera, da sbandato, e l'esistenza punto e basta. Cresciuto praticamente senza padre, in un ambiente in cui gente che diceva di amarsi si spaccava la faccia a vicenda, terrorizzato in casa e fuori, era un bambino grassoccio, timidissimo, bersaglio degli scherni dei ragazzi più grandi, che lo chiamavano "Fatina". Si è definito spesso la pecora nera della famiglia, ma per tutta l'infanzia è stato docilissimo, sempre in cerca di riconoscimento e di calore. Il candidato ideale alla delinquenza di strada, e al carcere minorile, dove infatti finisce. Proprio il carcere, e non sarà l'unica volta della sua vita, lo salva. Bastava qualcuno che gli instillasse un grammo di speranza in corpo e sarebbe arrivato sulla luna. A vent'anni diventa il più giovane campione del mondo dei pesi massimi, una furia nera che incute paura sia dentro che fuori dal ring. Ma il successo è un cavallo imbizzarrito, che bisogna saper domare, altrimenti ti disarciona. E non sempre è facile se le sirene del passato ti chiamano, e l'uomo che ti ha insegnato tutto ti lascia solo troppo presto a cavalcare la belva che lui stesso ha alimentato. La stessa che ti rende imbattibile sul ring, e ingestibile fuori. Vittorie, soldi, fallimenti, donne, alcol, violenza, prigione, droga entrano ed escono dalla sua vita come un vortice.‎
