Book Reviews of Mixed Martial Arts: The Book of Knowledge

Book Review: One of the better ones out there
Summary: 4 Stars

Negatives:
BJ Penn's version (only) of MMA. Very little information for the stand up.
Positives:
Extremely well done step by step color photos of techniques. High quality paper. The book looks and feels like a text book. Ecxellent depiction of the world Penn has proven himself a master in, the ground fight.
Recommend it:
Yes. Penn thankfuly stays true to what he knows and understands best and that is the world of BJJ. In the introduction he speaks of how a MMA fighter should concentrate on his strengths and then branch out to accomodate for the MMA world. Penn of course is a master of BJJ who has then acquired enough of the "stand up" game to not only survive in the MMA arena but thrive. Produced and released not long after his loss to Matt Hughes but before his fight with Sherk and subsequent title. This book is a great addition to a Ground Fighters library and anyone else who wants to improve their chances down there.
