The Most Famous Champion You Never Heard Of
As a book snob I don’t normally read stories about fighters, boxing, and can barely spell UCF and MMA. In fact I had to look them up to find out what the letters stand for. But I’m a sucker for underdog stories and even though Khabib Is the world reigning Mixed Martial Arts champion, in the US, Conor McGregor is better known and seems to be a bigger celebrity.
This is a fun, fast, and fascinating read about a man who came from a tough part of the world and went on to dominate MMA.
If Khabib had the mouth and moxie of Ali his story would be a movie, but you’ll have to settle for the book.
