Tarmac Warrior: The Violent World of Extreme Fighting Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Before I read this book I thought that bare fist fights were a myth. I have since found taht they are in fact a reality, not just in the States but world wide. If you want complete reviews on this book go to www.amazon.co.uk which I have done. This man is as famous in the UK as he is in the USA and indeed in Spain, France and Germany. Now in his mid fifties he looks back on his life and shares not only the bad times but the good times with special reference to his family and their culture. In no way is this book the usual ego massage of a fighter, he tells of his many defeats. Great read.

Billy Cribbwas one of the greatest bare-knuckle fighters of his generation. Revealing an underground fight scene rarely glimpsed by those on the outside, Tarmac Warrior traces Billy's career from his first fights on the motorways around Britain to the cross-channel ferries which provided an arena for many of his early fights. It then follows Billy's move to Majorca, giving a frightening insight into the timeshare racketeering, extortion, and organized crime which lie under the surface of the popular holiday destination. Billy goes on to recount his move to the USA, where he sank deeper into the world of drugs and violence. He becomes a debt-collector for the Mafia and a star fighter in the Mafia-run fight syndicates of New York and the cult fight circuit in California. Years later he returned to Britain as a reformed drug addict who had found religion.
