Off The Ropes: The Ron Lyle Story has universal appeal for readers who
want to understand what drives a man to travel a life arc that takes him
from gang member, to prisoner for a crime he did not commit, to
contending for a world championship fighting Muhammad Ali for 11 rounds,
to accused and acquitted of a second murder, to a redeemed man who is a
cherished member of the Denver community where he grew up.
