This book has the feel of a grandfather telling the youngsters about his glory days. Some parts came off as very boastful and far-fetched, e.g. being coerced into having sex with many, many women of a remote Mexican-Indian tribe because they prized his white skin. The parts that described his time in the ring were really cool, and inspired me to read more about this semi-controversial sport. Overall very interesting.
