Iceman is a nicely-presented, easy-to-read life story of Chuck Liddell. There are lots of colour and black and photos and it looks good. Unfortunately it doesn't tell you anything you couldn't pretty much guess for yourself about the guy.
For instance (these are all captions from the book),
I always push myself to the limit when training.
Victor Belfort took me off guard with a nice pop but in the end I nailed him some major blows and won by unaanimous decision.
I was proud to become a part of John's team of Pit monsters.
Is there any UFC fighter who doesn't give 100%? Or who doesn't respect his trainer? Liddell's comments tend either to be either fatuous or utterly unsurprising.
You can only conclude the sole reason for writing this book is to jump on the current bandwagon for biographies of MMA stars.

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

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...

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.

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.
