About this listen
Lee Murray’s life reads like a Hollywood script—except every jaw-dropping moment is real. From the brutal world of cage fighting to masterminding the largest cash robbery in UK history, his story is one of extraordinary highs and devastating lows.
Raised in the tough streets of South London, Murray was a born fighter—both inside and outside the cage. His raw talent and knockout power saw him rise through the ranks of British MMA, culminating in a UFC fight that would put his name on the global stage. But his career was cut short by violence outside the cage, and what followed was a descent into the world of organised crime.
In 2006, Murray played a key role in the Securitas Depot Heist, a meticulously planned robbery that saw over £53 million stolen in a daring, high-stakes operation that shocked the nation. But with fortune came fallout. The law soon caught up with him, leading to a dramatic arrest in Morocco, where he was sentenced to decades behind bars, with extradition battles, escape attempts, and legal twists keeping his story in the headlines.
Featuring insights from UFC President Dana White and legendary fight commentator Joe Rogan—this book explores the legend of Lee Murray from every angle. Was he a wasted talent, a criminal mastermind, or both? With gripping fight descriptions, real-life crime drama, and deep dives into the mind of a man who lived without limits, 'Lee Murray: UFC to HMP' is the ultimate account of one of the most notorious figures in combat sports history.
As Murray dreams of a royal pardon and a return to the UFC, his story remains unfinished. This is the definitive chronicle of a fighter who refused to go down without a fight—both in the octagon and in life.
©2025 Stu Armstrong (P)2025 Stu ArmstrongThe inaccuracies in this book are shocking and point towards the fact that the author has just made large parts of it up.
The fact that he doesn't even know Lee's Mum's name, he says that Lee's trainer in this Country was Pat, which he wasn't as he only trained with Pat in Iowa, he never even mentions Lee's main trainers name and the fact that he doesn't even know which round Lee won his fight in the UFC in shows me how poorly this book was researched, if at all, as all of these things are easily found on the internet.
I have to admit that I could only get three quarters of the way though it as it was so badly written and full of so much nonsense there was no point in going any further.
Because of his situation I haven't spoken to Lee directly for a little while and I've only had second hand contact with him through his family etc, however upon reading this absolute drivel I will contact him directly and let him know about it as it won't be something that he will want anything to do with!
It's shocking that something like this can be produced and put out in the public domain as a biography when it bares little resemblance to the person it's meant to be portraying!
The most inaccurate book I've ever listened to
