Fight Magazine Brian Stann knows a thing or two about fighting--he's been doing it the last 29 years. From fighting off gangs as a kid to serving as a Marine Officer in the Middle East to stepping into the Octagon, Stann has chewed some steel. His new book, Heart for the Fight , documents his trials and tribulations. Reason to Read: Stann is a badass. There's just no other way to describe him. If he never wins another fight in the Octagon, he'll still be a badass. The man led his troops through two intense combat tours and received a Silver Star for gallantry. Now, he fights for the UFC and works as Executive Director of HireHeroes USA, a link to job opportunities for servicemen and women., Ground and Pound ( Vancouver Sun MMA blog) "Heart for the Fight is a heckuva read that takes you from Stann's rough and tumble childhood years to college football glory, the front lines in Iraq and a WEC title. Definitely worth the cover price - a surprisingly insightful and interesting read.", Ground and Pound(VancouverSunMMA blog) "Heart for the Fightis a heckuva read that takes you from Stann's rough and tumble childhood years to college football glory, the front lines in Iraq and a WEC title. Definitely worth the cover price - a surprisingly insightful and interesting read.", Brawl Sports ( Houston Chronicle ) Fighter autobiographies are nothing new, but Heart for the Fight stands alone. His story is completely unique, but it's a willingness to open up and identify his own flaws and his own emotions that separates Stann from the crowd. It's a must-read and a valuable look at one of the good guys in the MMA world. About.com Sport biographies are often predictable and tend to focus on athletic prowess. Duh, right? Perhaps that's what makes the majority of these stories boring to me...I've heard it all before. Which is why Heart for the Fight was such a refreshing read. You see, Heart for the Fight tells the story of former WEC champion Brian Stann, and it's hardly about MMA alone. In fact, I wouldn't even call this a book about an MMA fighter specifically. Rather, it's the story of war hero that's already done more with his life than most... Think about that: Stann made it through tough times in Scranton, played football for Navy, served his country as a platoon commander in Iraq, and now fights professionally in MMA. That's a book by itself. Add in his relationship with his wife and some controversy surrounding allegations made by a woman and you have one gripping page turner. Heart for the Fight is one of the better sports biographies I've read in a long time because it's not all about sports--it's about the heroic spirit of a man that has done more in his short time on earth than many do in a lifetime. Don't pick this book up if you're looking for a cookie cutter story on an MMA athlete. Rather, pick it up if you want to be inspired. I highly recommend it., UltimateFighter.com Heart for the Fight, Brian Stann's story of how he went from Navy football player to U.S. Marine to UFC fighter, is like no other sports book you'll ever read. And no, that's not hyperbole. In a sense, it should go without saying that Stann's book would stand out from the pack. After all, it's hard to think of another athlete, in any sport, who's seen and done what Stann has. However, it's not just that Stann has a remarkable story. It's that it's told in a remarkable way. Where most professional athletes work with a sportswriter when putting their stories in print, Stann opted for John R. Bruning, a professional military historian. With Bruning's help, Stann has crafted a memoir that reads like a movie, complete with plot twists, foreshadowing, and most of all, well executed non-linear storytelling. …while fans may pick upHeart for the Fightfor the MMA content, it's the stories from Iraq that resonate the most, and this is as it should be. As Stann states at several points during the book, the Marines he fought with in Iraq-both those who died, and those who came home with him-are the driving force behind his MMA career, and any understanding of who Stann is as a fighter has to include the horrors he endured in Iraq. Today, Brian Stann fights in the UFC, an organization known around the world with its slogan, 'As Real As It Gets.'

Book was received extremely dirty and sticky. I had to wash it as soon as I pulled it out of the shipping bag. The corners look like they have been chewed on and the cover is ripped. I would say the condition is at best a 5 out of 10. Seller did not mention any of these things in the item description. Well there was actually no description at all. I won't be purchasing any other items from this seller unfortunately.
