The reason I became a fan of mma and the ufc, is because of this man. He is mma to me, he's just not a great fighter, but also a great showman! So how could I go wrong by the guy who made me a fan, with a book that gives me an inside look at an icon of the greatest sport on the planet? Thank you Chuck for all the great fights, you will always be champ to me.
