Book “The Pact”
The Story of two big champions!
SYNOPSIS
Manuel “Amaya González” got addicted to drugs in full swing of a very promising boxing
career, at times where getting 2 nationals titles and one Latin American title, as well as his
rising to the worldwide ranking, it projected him the dispute of the worldwide championship.
Fame, money and glory waved at him, he had it all served thanks to his innate boxing
abilities, until he tried the damn drugs, that it broke his dreams, it sinked him into chaos, it
dragged him into poverty and a life full of death that made him lose it all.
Drugs took him out of the ring and deprived him from his future. They caught him,
consumed his very soul, broke his heart and made him hit rough bottom.
From there, he suffered, he hated, he hated himself, despised everything and everyone. It
became bitter and neglected himself into loneliness. He was caught up in that world full of
pain and death for 19 years, but had the guts to pull himself together, get up and become who
he is today; a great example of recovery.
“The Pact” describes his suffering and sweeps with him all of his concerns, his pain and
dispossession that nearly caused death upon him.
This book also takes us to get to know an act full of generosity from Mauricio Fernandez
Soto, hard-working businessman, former boxer, who, depply grateful with God for the blessing
of prosperity, fought next to Manuel until rescuing him from his addiction to drugs, walking by
his side even today, after almost 25 years later, in his remarkable recovery.
Two stories, two testimonials that trace from one hand the calvary from a tomertend
adicted to drugs who manages to get out of darkness and is now living proof of hardwork and
self-improvement, and, on the other had, a farmer’s point of view who, due to health issues,
leaves his home seeking for a job, starting a journey of effort and success that takes him to
become his own businessman.
“The Pact” is, above all, a message of positivism directed to those who live in darkness, in
order to, from Faith, trust in God and in themselves, with courage and willpower, know that;
Indeed!, It is possible to go back to the light!
