the iceman came June 12, 2008 D. S. Hammond (uk) Being a long time UFC fan I was looking forward to this book but felt after reading it that too much was missed out for PC reasons. A average read not on the scale of little evil but better than matts?
hmm i was expecting better... May 9, 2008 C. F. Mason (england) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
this book could have been a whole lot better...it doesn't tell any stories of streetfights...or famous excess...in fact theres hardly any funny stories in there either... i want to read about incidents on the street...arguements...details...humour...other famous people...parties...etc... its a bit pg...
Quality book April 5, 2008 Marcus (United Kingdom) I bought Chuck's book last weekend and it took me just 3 days to read it. It's very interesting and easy to read. Chuck is one of my favourite MMA fighters and I was glad to see his autobiography coming on the market. Chuck describes his childhood at the beginning, later on he describes how he started with martial arts and then he talks about his fights in the ring and cage. Talks about UFC and also his personal life and life style. Very interesting, have a go. You won't be dissapointed.
Cool as ice March 31, 2008 K. G. A. Alavi (London, England)
This was one of the best biographies I have read this year. I was really surprised at how well the book is written. If anyone thinks the UFC athletes are just jobless brawlers PLEASE read this book. In the book itself you find out how serious Chuck is about martial arts, not just fighting (even though he makes not secret that is his favourite part), but the discipline and dedication you need to be a serious martial artist. One of the amazing thing about this book, is Chuck's ability to talk about his many accomplishments (and there are a hell of a lot of them) with out bragging. He gives his personal opinion on all the people he has met, from Dana White, to Tito, and everyone he has met and fought. This is a must read for all serious martial artists.
Chuck Liddell - straight up March 28, 2008 D. Lemin (Cardiff) As a complete adict to the UFC programmes on Sky I couldn't wait to read this book and then I couldn't put it down. It gives a really good insight into the life and hard work of a MMA fighter and also tells the story of the development of the UFC to where it is now. It also demonstrates that the best fighters are not simply the toe to toe sluggers but those who are clever enough to switch styles to suit opponents weaknesses and who learn from thier mistakes. This book will give a lot of people food for thought if they beleived fighters were all dumb. Its an excellent book and highly recommended.
