My Fight / Your Fight by Ronda Rousey
3.0
This book was okay.
There were definitely some great quotes that I'll be sure to record for later inspiration. Loved the photographs that were distributed throughout.
It revolved mostly around Ronda's rise to champion and all of the roadblocks in between. I think this book would be perfect for any aspiring MMA fighters, or any athlete for that matter. I had to deduct stars for structure and voice. Sometimes the structure of this book got a little jumbled and I wish it was a little more fluid. Maybe by year? And Ronda writes this book with a voice of a undefeated champion which is fine but it took me out of it sometimes. I didn't feel like that as much at the start of the book but once she becomes part of Strikeforce and the UFC, the tone of the book shifts and it becomes a little too much of "I'm better than everyone else. Duh." and not enough of "here's how YOU can be great AND humble." I still love her as a fighter and the book was okay. Just nothing exceptional. I would be curious to see how this book would differ now that she has experienced her first UFC loss to Holly Holms...
