Major MMA shows attract a galaxy of celebrities from the Film, T.V and sports world. In U.SA and Japan MMA has climbed to celestial heights with regular attendances in excess of 20,000 to 100,000. In the U.K the UFC is outselling fights headlined by the most popular boxers in the country.

This book charts the radically diverse backgrounds of the fighters, from the legendary pioneers and UFC Hall of Famers Royce Gracie, Ken Shamrock, Mark Coleman, to iconic fighters and champions Randy Couture, Chuck Liddell, Matt Hughes and the controversial charismatic star “The Huntington Beach Bad Boy” Tito Ortiz, finally moving on to rising stars Michael Bisping and Georges St Pierre. Ultimate Conversations gives you an incredible glimpse into just what it takes to survive in the world’s most brutal arena in the most popular and exciting combat sport on the planet.
