What can this literary project be interesting for the future reader of the book?
First of all, the very personality of its main character. Probably few people from the world of Latvian sports have done so much to popularize the relatively small Latvia, a country by the cold Baltic Sea, on our vast planet. Maybe only the national hockey or basketball teams. And even then in the most recent times.
Secondly, the challenge that Mairis is currently facing due to his age is also of interest. Shortly before his fortieth birthday, joining the ranks of our fellow male citizens who have reached their "best age", he is facing the difficult choice of ending his sports career and starting the next stage of his life.
Mairis Briedis is a Latvian professional boxer and kickboxer, competing in the first heavyweight and heavyweight categories. He is a three-time world heavyweight champion, holding the IBF and Ring titles from 2020 to 2022; the WBC title from 2017 to 2018; and the WBO title in 2019. By winning the WBC title in 2017, he became the first Latvian to hold a world boxing title.
