His new book is A Cuban Boxer\u2019s Journey.\n\n"He smiled at me and just to make small talk, I said, 'You know, you\u2019ve got this gold grill on your teeth. Where did you get that from?' And he said, 'Oh, I just melted my gold medals into my mouth.' And I thought, 'I think I\u2019ve got a story here.'"\n\nThanks to TinyLetter, WW Norton & Company and Open Road Integrated Media for sponsoring this week's episode.\n\nShow Notes:\n@brincio\n[4:45] Pitching Around Fidel (S.L.
