Frank Shamrock was widely regarded as the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world. But first he suffered through a childhood of neglect, juvenile delinquency, and petty crime. He was eventually taken in by Bob Shamrock, who fostered hundreds of troubled boys. But when Frank couldn’t afford to support his family, he turned to burglary and wound up in state prison. When he was released, Frank joined Ken in training. For the next two decades he dominated the entire sport. In this riveting book Shamrock gives vivid accounts of his battles both in and out of the ring.
