Summary: One of the best sports biographies ever.
Review: I had high hopes going into this book, the same affliction that ruins a lot of good stuff for me. The bad was set incredibly high but in no way did this book let me down. I couldn't let IT down either, I was glued to the pages in every spare moment for three days reading this great tale of one man's story to fight his demons and conquer the world.

I recommend this book not only to MMA fans but to anybody with a heart. An awe-inspiring journey that pulls at your heart strings every step of the way until you find yourself cheering Jens along.

Wonderful book, worth more than it costs.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fantastic book!!
Review: I have always liked Jens Pulver as a fighter, but now after reading about all he had to go through has made me an even bigger fan. This is a must read for and Mixed Martial Arts fan! It goes completely through his life from his childhood, to college, to his jump into profesional fighting. The details seem to not leave anything out leaving you with a feeling that you know much more about him after reading. Be warned once you start reading it you won't be able to put it down. I read the book straight through and recommend it to anyone. It is definalty a must read!

Summary: The story behind the fighter...
Review: It's been said that most great champions have had to overcome great adversity. This is the story of the adversity that Jens Pulver had to overcome.

Jens, assisted by Eric Knauss, tells the story of a childhood raised by a loving mother and an alcoholic abusive father. The sport of wrestling allows him to focus his anger, but he drinks away an athletic scholarship in idyllic Idaho. Every time he almost gets out of the morass, his past comes crashing back.

The story ends with his Ultimate Fighting Champion title defense against BJ Penn, a prodigy who was a big favorite coming in to the fight.

The book contained much more emotional depth than expected. Readers expecting a detailed history of Pulver's fights will be disappointed, however. This is more about his personal struggles outside the ring than his battles inside the ring. The other potential shortfall is that the story is still unfinished. Since the book Jens has had a fall, and is the midst of a comeback. It would be interesting to read his take on that as well.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: "Little Evil" by Jens Pulver & Erich Krauss simply Awesome!!
Review: Just got done reading Jens Pulvers book. It took me only a couple of hours to finish it. That's how good it was.

What a compelling and excellent read for any sports fan. Talk about highs and lows that Jens went through. I was captivated when I started reading it and felt consumed to read on.

After reading it, I feel alot closer to Jens even though I've never met the man before. I feel for him and want to encourage and support him. That is how this book makes me feel. It makes me look at the things around me and not take them for granted because there are so many that are alot worse off than I.

This book is inspiring and motivating. I want to thank Jens and Erich for taking the time to write this book, it is truly a great piece, one that I will always keep. Much respect goes out to Jens for having the courage to step out in the spot light and share his "personal" story to the world.

Go ahead and get a book of your own: "Little Evil; One Ultimate Fighter's Rise to the Top" by Jens Pulver & Erich Krauss

Summary: GREAT BOOK!!!
Review: This is a great book from start to finish. Once you read the first chapter it is very hard to stop. I had to pry it out of my hands to study for finals otherwise I would have read the whole thing the first day I got it.

I recommend that everyone read this book it is interesting from start to finish and doesn't hold anything back. He really went through some rough times before becoming the champion fans of mixed martial arts know today.
