Synopsis

Meet Ian Freeman, extreme fighter. Incarcerated in a metal cage, his fights have no limits. He is a friend to keep close and an enemy to steer clear of, cross him and you will live to regret it. For Ian, violence is no glamorous profession, but a way of life. Determined to be able to defend himself whatever the challenge, Ian quickly establishes himself as an unbeatable force in the fighting art of Vale Tudo - Portuguese for "anything goes" - and rose to Britain's finest heavyweight Mixed Martial Arts fighter. This book tells the tale of one man's battle to win. Having championed justice on his own doorstep, defeated bullies, drug dealers and trouble makers, he has gone on to become a champion both in name and nature.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Hit me first and that's when I turn psycho. I cracked him so hard that he fell against the wall behind him; that was the only thing that kept him up. He was so dazed that he turned to run away and just ran straight into the wall...Meet Ian Freeman...otherwise known as The Machine. A friend to keep close and an enemy to steer clear of, cross him and you will live to regret it. For Ian, violence is no glamorous profession, but a way of life.At 18 years of age, Ian's destiny changed forever, when he stepped in to help the victim of a brutal attack. Ian's bravery was rewarded by the gang of bullies turning their fists on him. He was beaten to within an inch of his life but escaped through sheer determination.From this point on, Ian became fighter rather than victim and The Machine was born. Soon he was running the doors of Sunderland's toughest nightclubs with an iron fist, but merely controlling his patch was not enough. Determined to be able to defend himself whatever the challenge, Ian quickly established himself as an unbeatable force in the fighting art of Vale Tudo - Portuguese for 'anything goes' - and rose to be Britain's finest heavyweight Mixed Martial Arts fighter.
