TITLE SHOT deserves ongoing and repeated recommendation as an
outstanding account of an Army officer who embarked on a survey of
mixed martial arts competition to learn what drives fighters through
years of grueling training. He lived in one of the five top MMA
training camps in the U.S. and spent time with some of the biggest
names in the sports to develop this blend of memoir and an insider's
guide into mixed martial arts competition seldom experienced by the
general public. A top pick for any MMA or casual fan alike, this will
find its place in many a general lending library.
