For the first time, the lid is lifted on the world's fastest growing combat sport, Bare Knuckle Boxing, written by Stu Armstrong, who has worked in the centre of the sometimes controversial sport. The purest form of pugilism is a nest of vipers with of the most with dirty tricks, and secrets at every turn.

On the night in 1964 that Muhammad Ali (then known as Cassius Clay) stepped into the ring with Sonny Liston, he was widely regarded as an irritating freak who danced and talked way too much. Six rounds later Ali was not only the new world heavyweight boxing champion: He was "a new kind of black man" who would shortly transform America's racial politics, its popular culture, and its notions of heroism. No one has captured Ali—and the era that he exhilarated and sometimes infuriated—with greater vibrancy, drama, and astuteness than David Remnick.

Virtually every big name in wrestling in the second half of the 20th Century crossed paths with "Ms. Christine," as she was known to most. If they followed her rules, Christine "Teeny" Jarrett probably taught them a thing or two about staying out of trouble and saving money for a rainy day. If they got out of line, they likely faced The Grip. Over the course of her 50-year career in wrestling, Teeny worked her way from selling tickets in the back of a Nashville, Tennessee shoe store to running a network of towns for Nick Gulas and Roy Welch...

Are you settling for less than your full potential? Ryback, also known as "The Big Guy", may seem like he has it all - success as a professional athlete, health, money, and a physique to envy. But in Wake Up! It's Feeding Time he reveals that he hasn't always been so successful; he had to earn it. The key to his success - and yours too, if you heed his advice - is to "believe in yourself, even when nobody else does", set smart goals, and work toward achieving them.

On a balmy July evening in 1972, to the sound of The Dubliners, Muhammad Ali climbed through the ropes to fight Al ‘Blue’ Lewis at Croke Park. The most famous athlete in the world had somehow been inveigled to Ireland by Butty Sugrue, a charismatic entrepreneur who was ridiculed for trying to do the impossible right up to the moment Ali and his entourage touched down at Dublin Airport. And so began a week of the most glorious mayhem, as ‘the Champ’ charmed the Irish people.

Behold, the tome Warrior Wisdom, the most infamous, offensive, and subversive collection of quotations, maxims, and anecdotes ever published. Formerly issued as a training manual to members of the Righteous Warrior Temple.

This book aims to provide the general listener and the martial arts enthusiast with a practical approach and understanding of the development of a personal protection system. Self-defense on the streets is a contrast when compared to the way one thinks, trains, and acts within the confines of a training hall. Self-defense is not so much about technique as it is about seconds! Both in how one will react or diffuse a situation without the need for violence!

FTW Self Defense is a revolutionary text which addresses, in great detail, many important yet controversial topics which most instructors do not discuss with their students. This is the reality of self defense, and these topics are not entered into lightly. Intended for mature and open minded students only. This is the long awaited companion volume to the underground best seller Hardcore Self Defense.

It's said there's more philosophy that can be found on the mats of a jiu jitsu academy than in any Ivy League school in America.

This audiobook's target audience is females between the ages of 18 and 35 who are seeking realistic advice about how to avoid conflict, stay safe in high risk situations, and defend themselves effectively if necessary. This audiobook differs from the typical women's self-defense audiobook in that it is written from the outlaw perspective by a controversial author who had been immersed in deep street subcultures for over 20 years and has published two underground bestsellers regarding the forbidden topics of self-defense that more reputable instructors are hesitant to address.
