WORD: Boxing champ McCullough’s bio. ‘Don’t Quit’ released

World champion boxer Wayne McCullough’s biography Don’t Quit (Mainstream Publishing) was launched on November 10, the author said.

McCullough is one of the few European boxers campaigning in the U.S., and legendary trainer Eddie Futch once guided him to a professional world title. McCullough lives in Las Vegas, where he lost a world title bout to Oscar Larios of Mexico earlier this year.

Don’t Quit traces McCullough’s roots in Belfast, Ireland, where he won an Olympic silver medal, to his recent controversial fights, in which he’s defied a ban by the British Boxing Board of Control after an MRI revealed a brain cyst while undergoing tests for a rare offshore fight.

McCullough is in Ireland this week doing a publicity tour that includes several television shows.

"I’ve been doing photo shoots, interviews on TV and radio and signing autographs but I’m loving every minute of it," he said. "Everyone I have spoken to have said they love the book - and that’s mainly been journalists. So that’s a good thing."
