Uh oh, here’s another celebrity wanker with a self-help book telling everyone how to live their lives. Don’t worry. It’s not. I can’t think of anything worse to read, let alone write, so I won’t subject you to that.

In The Good Fight, Harry Garside, Australia’s ballet dancing boxing star, offers a raw account of his journey through sport, unexpected challenges and personal growth. Harry opens up about his remarkable journey with wit and wisdom, and offers a refreshing perspective on masculinity, sharing his struggles, triumphs, and moments of profound self-discovery.

Having won both gold and bronze medals at the Commonwealth and Tokyo Olympic games respectively, and playing a starring role at the 2024 Olympics, Harry is one of Australia’s stand-out boxing talents.

Through personal anecdotes and heartfelt poetry, Garside invites readers to see beyond the stereotypes, offering a nuanced exploration of identity, resilience, and showing how to be comfortable in your own skin.
