Product Description
This gripping tale follows the life of Jens Pulver, the current lightweight Ultimate Fighting Champion. Pulver reveals a youth spent in a family in which violence was the only way to deal with conflict, and in which his father's alcoholism made all family relationships contentious. Set against Pulver’s tumultuous upbringing, this account offers insight into his rise to prominence in the ring and his drive to overcome adversity and find inner peace.

 captivating story October 5, 2008
I enjoyed this book. From his difficult childhood to becoming a UFC champion, the author talks about perseverance, depression, fighting his own demons, and choices in life.
GREAT READ!!!! September 3, 2008
This is probably one of my favorite books. I was a huge Jens Pulver fan going into this but knew nothing about his life. The way that he carries himself now in no way portrays what he was put through as a child. You gain such a respect for him as a person and a fighter. I read the book in a few days and then my husband (who hates to read) read it in a week.
I don't reccomend opening this book until you have plenty of time to sit down and read. It is hard to put down!
Jen's Book August 30, 2008
I am not much a reader but after reading tito's new book i chose to read this one next. i was happy with titos book until i read jens, pulvers book put into perspective how human nature can be put to the test and how dedication is the most powerful human strength, this book was a wonderful read that i could not put down, jens is a man who has struggled to be where he is and truly has a wonderful story to tell a true inspiration.
 VERY ENTERTAINING August 28, 2008
THIS BOOK WAS EXACTLLY WHAT I EXPECTED.IT WAS WELL WRITEN,INFORMATIVE AND ENTERTAINING.IF YOU ARE A FAN OF MMA OR JENS PULVER THEN THIS BOOK IS RIGHT UP YOUR ALLEY.MY ONLY COMPLAINT IS THAT ITS A VERY SHORT BOOK.
Little Evil! July 14, 2008

Good, quick read!
This was the original MMA fighter autobiography. Jens's was the 1st MMA fighter to tell his story. When "Little Evil" was written, was shortly after Jens Pulver defended his championship belt against then up and coming fighter(& future champion) B.J. Penn!
Jens went through hell as a kid. He had every reason to become just another punk kid, with no direction in life dealing drugs and drinking. But lucky for him, he found wrestling and had alot of great coaches & mentors direct him to a life worth living for.
Since this book was written however Jens Pulver lost his belt, as do all champions eventually. He will always be one of the original UFC fighters and always a legend. Jens is now training again and fighting in the WEC, he already lost one title shot against Urijah Faber, but the rematch is coming soon!
As an avid fan of MMA, I think Jens still has alot of fight in him and he will be around for awhile and his legendary left hand is as strong as ever!
Good short book for any MMA fans!
