The Unexpected Danny Green

About The Novel Danny Green is an intelligent, physically gifted, good looking fighter with a lethal left hook. An ambitious, determined and intellectually curious young man, Danny earns a spot as an alternate at the 1976 Summer Olympic Games, turns pro and becomes a heralded prizefighter in New York City. He takes on the best at America's mecca of boxing, Madison Square Garden. Along the way, Danny begins a passionate relationship with the smart and beautiful Julianne, has to fend off a dangerous Mafioso wanting to control his career, faces a brutal street attack, and survives a devastating hurricane on St. Thomas Island. Refusing to be held back by life's roadblocks, Danny eventually headlines a controversial boxing match in Atlantic City and guts one out at the star-filled "Fabulous Forum" in Los Angeles. He appears on-camera with legendary sportscaster Howard Cosell, becomes a published author, is recruited by Nike to be part of their original 'Just Do it' campaign, is interviewed by Howard Stern and finally makes a stunning debut on the big screen.
