Good Information,
By
This review is from: UFC's Ultimate Warriors: The Top 10 (Paperback)
The author of this book tries to judge the top 10 fighters of the UFC, using his own criteria. The criteria is loosely based on the overall performance of each fighter and the lasting effect they had on the MMA world. The reason Tank Abbot made it is because Tank was the first to use gloves in the Octogon - something that all fighters use today.The veracity of the book can be argued about, but that is not to say that the book has no purpose. There have been many historians who have written about the top 10 American Presidents, but really there will never be any absolute criteria to prove which President is best - it can always be argued for or against. So this book has a place in the MMA world, and it is a fun and easy read, especially for MMA fans.
