Tarmac Warrior : The Violent World Of Extreme Fighting Paperback / softback
by Billy Cribb
Paperback / softback
Description
Bare-knuckle fighting without the bull! I haven't been to prison for robbery, I didn't know the Krays and I make no claims to be invincible . . . But my life fighting was the closest to hell I will ever get.'Learn what fuels hatred and makes a once-gentle boy into violent man.
Read stories of horrific fighting experiences on the Mafia-controlled extreme fight circuit of New York.
Prepare yourself for harrowing descriptions of drug addiction, mindless violence and organised crime.
Tarmac Warrior has it all. Billy Cribb was born into a Romani/Jew family and spent most of his childhood travelling.
His early years were marred by the racism and bigotry his family endured at the hands of small-minded locals in the villages where they worked.
These random attacks planted seeds of anger and hatred in Billy which later manifested in his fighting - for Billy Cribb became one of the greatest bare-knuckle fighters of his generation.
Revealing an underground fight scene rarely glimpsed by those on the outside, Tarmac Warrior traces Billy's career from his first fights on the motorways and A roads around Britain onto the cross channel ferries which provided an arena for many of his early fights.
It then follows Billy's move to Majorca, giving a frightening insight into what really goes on in this seemingly idyllic Mediterranean island: the timeshare racketeering, extortion and organised crime which lie under the surface of the popular holiday destination.
