Book Reviews of Wrestling for Fighting: The Natural Way
Book Review: a great book by a great wrestler
Summary: 5 Stars
Some people say that Randy's record is not that good, true, they don't know who he has fight in that not to good record. He fought almost all the best fighters in the world, few of his losses are againts the best in the worlds, too, such Ricco Rodriguez, Josh Barnett (two naturally bigger guys with great skill sets), Chuck Liddell (twice but won once!), Vitor Belfort (due to a cut and he even won twice!), Brock Lesnar and Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira (two of current best 5 heavyweights in the world on their early thirties, Randy was 45-46 when he fought them and still give them hell before his losses ;p )
He's one of the most accomplished wrestler (if not the most) in MMA arenas. His wrestling skills are way up there for his body size, especially on his age againts all odds!! One of the most beloved UFC champion, the only guy who has won 5 titles in UFC (3 times heavyweight and 2 times light heavyweight), is called Captain America and always up to any challenges.
His greco roman wrestling skills are superior and his freestyle wrestling skills are pretty elite, too. His boxing skills and heart, of course, helps a lot in his fights, too but he mainly uses his superior wrestling skills to adjust the distance, cut the angles, using great leverage, power and explosiveness then mixing them up with all his boxing skills and heart as big as a lion.
This book is totally worth more than the price you pay around Amazon's. Just like the title "Wrestling for Fighting" , He teaches you mainly about the fundamentals of the wrestling technics and tips then he slowly shows you how to use them in fighting, particularly in MMA sport. The lessons are precious, the quality of the book and explanations are crystal clear as other Victory Belt, Cordoza/ Krauss's books. It's great for anyone seriously want to learn about wrestling and how to use them in MMA arenas. In wrestling area, I personally trust Randy the most to learn since he successfully apply them over and over again in the cage. In judo area (throws, pins and submission), I personally recommend Karo Parysian book, in striking area, especially striking positioning, Anderson Silva or Lyoto Machida, in BJJ, BJ Penn, Royler Gracie or Rodrigo Gracie, Fedor is the best heavyweight ever and I respect him the most but the book by itself is okay.
Thanks
