Got Fight?: The 50 Zen Principles of Hand-to-Face Combat
Contents:
This book is one of the best book I have even though the language and content might be rated R if it's a movie but aren't they all like that most of the time now? Dirty language, crazy decision and lifestyle in some period of his lifetime but still he has a class that he shows in his real message after all the jokes and crazy stories and foul language he uses.
I can't put this book down.

Kindle Edition Verified Purchase. Great read, only reason it got 4 instead of 5 stars is he spends quite abit of time laying out techniques and showing you how to do them. This was actually rather interesting but I was hopeing for more stories from his life as they were by far the best parts of the book Forrest is everybit as crazy as you think and more, this is a guy who has held genuine conversations with a video tape and his Friend knowing full well he wasn't there.
He mentioned that he spent time helping train special operators in the military which I thought was extremely manly. In the end, it's mostly funny, slightly juvenile, but entirely entertaining. Refresh and try again. All those fucking time outs and shit when I just wanted to watch Silver Spoons.

It tells about how he got into the sport and abit about his life in general. Its mostly written as a informative look into how he trains and what all he does to get ready for a fight.

Don't think that because its written by a UFC fighter that it is a book about fighting. It's not, its about very weird ideas and stories of Forrest Griffin that will make you laugh out loud that you'll fall off your seat. I am not exaggerating. I remember when I was reading this book in public by myself I used to laugh and giggle that people around me thought I am a freak: I didn't care really because if they knew how funny and vulgar the jokes were they would have understood!
Whether you're into MMA or not, you won't go wrong reading this book. There's not much to learn really, except some of the good Jiu Jitsu techniques given at the end, however the jokes you will get and the fun you will experience from reading this book is totally worth buying it. I highly recommend it!
