It occurred to him that, without distractions, he could finally indulge a long-dormant obsession: fighting. Within a year, he was in Bangkok training with the greatest fighter in muay Thai (Thai kickboxing) history and stepping through the ropes for a professional bout. That one fight wasn't enough. Sheridan set out to test himself on an epic journey into how and why we fight, facing Olympic boxers, Brazilian jiu-jitsu stars, and Ultimate Fighting champions. Along the way, Sheridan delivers an insightful look at violence as a career and a spectator sport, a behind-the-pageantry glimpse of athletes at the top of their terrifying game. An extraordinary combination of gonzo journalism and participatory sports writing, <i>A Fighter's Heart</i> is a dizzying first-hand account of what it's like to reach the peak of finely disciplined personal aggression, to hit--and be hit.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"[An] excellent book." --BoxingScene.com <p/><br>
