| | | Based on unlimited access to the Ultimate Fighting Championship and its rival leagues, "Blood in the Cage" peers through the chain-link Octagon into the frighteningly seductive world of mixed martial arts. 1 MP3 CD.
Annotation:
Jon Wertheim's no-holds-barred account of mixed martial arts and Ultimate Fighting Championship hits its mark with the force of an elbow to the kidneys. Pat Miletich, a five time champion who now runs a premier training facility in Bettendorf, Iowa, is the main focus of the book, which provides full coverage of all aspects of the sport, from the ring to the "cha-ching" of the half-billion dollar empire. Wertheim's in-depth history includes vicious descriptions of some of the most memorable fights, both inside the octagon and in the courtroom, where the league constantly battles against submission at the hands of opponents condemning the brutality of this blood sport.
| Praise| "Wertheim gives insight into the spirit of men who subject themselves to intense pain and suffering to become successful fighters." - Robert Anasi 02/04/2009 |
