from Dutton Adult
Price: $17.13

Customer Review:
Chuck Liddell is a great fighter and his fights are entertaining. The contradiction of his ferocity in the Octagon to his mild-mannered nature outside of it is fascinating. I wish the book had more depth and exposed more of the real Chuck. But after reading about how Chuck was raised and getting a... more info

Customer Review:
Maybe my favorite book of the last 2 years. The only book I've given out as a gift more than once - to my martial arts teacher, and to a co-worker who appreciates MMA.

Customer Review:
I was given this--wouldn't have imagined that I was interested in boxing. After reading the section on Dickens (the reason I was given the book), I started the preceding chapter, then started from the beginning, then had to read the end.

from Harper
Price: $23.07

Customer Review:
While this book possesses a definite sense of humor tempering a very serious subject, this fun is well placed, well delivered, and actually serves to intensify the poignancy of humans smashing other humans.
