Is it really doing Frank any type of service by posting such vivid "summaries" of his book?

 

How is this helping sales?


I would never have bought the book but am considering it now. Phone Post

Thus is life, being wrong can be a daily thing.

Although I do not agree with select books being discussed and others are off limits.

People put lots of time into books and it is a shame that everything is laid out for free.

Sam Sheridan has a new book coming out, will it be acceptable to wreck all of his time and effort as well?

A overview is one thing but when you recap everything in every chapter you might as well go to Frank's house and steal everything in his sock drawer.

I would have never bought this book. I am, at the very least, considering it now, as I'm sure are many others reading this thread.

In a lot of ways, this is free publicity for Frank.

Good with the bad I suppose.

Ch. 11 Feuds and the Fight Business

Frank talks about Ken's feud with Royce and Tito. He also touches on a feud with Tank that culminates with Tank telling Frank, who is with his girlfriend, "hey cowboy, if she doesn't go down on you tonight, I'll take you home and suck your dick."

He talks about this crazy street fight he'd got into with a dude that cut in front of him in a checkout at Home Depot. Frank confronted the guy in the paring lot and ended up getting chases with an 8 inch hunting knife around the parking lot.

He talks about how he got his nickname "the legend" in his fight against Bryan Pardoe in the WEC. His talks about his marriage to Amy and helping start the IFL. He talks about trying to set up the fight with Ken, Ken's fight with Kimbo that didn't end up happening, and how he volunteered to save the event. He talks about Jared Shaw accusing him of offering to throw the Kimbo fight and him thinking he threw the Cung Le fight. He also talks about his fight with Cesar.

Frank talks about meeting with Dana and getting an offer to fight in the UFC, but turning it down due to all the exclusivity. He talks about World Fighter and how that fell through because they couldn't get on showtime. He goes on in great detail about his fight with Renzo. Phone Post

I wrote of Franks Home Depot story running from parking lot all the way out the back of Home Depot I believe in an interview I wrote up for Fighters Only magazine (and may I Say one of the INTERVIEWS I GOT STIFFED on them not paying me for $600 owed after helping them start and giving them Pride and UFC contacts they did not have....now they throw a big show, on every newsstand, and still won't pay me my $600 I itemized for them like 15 times :)

I've never seen the magazine with this in it, does anyone have it?

I almost asked tank abbott about the shamrock book...i was about to ask him about  the claim he offered to give frank a blowjob...thank god he started talking before I could ask.

 

I ask him about frank's book at the 3:30 mark.  Says frank didn't write it. probably written in crayon and a finger paint drawings

Tank is the only fighter that I ever wanted to meet that I never did... yet. LOVE that guy for some reason!

How come his beard is gray but his hair isn't?

He's kind of gingerish, and that's actually pretty common- head hair darkens, but doesn't gray, but the facial hair does. Same thing happened to Willie Nelson, and he's almost 400 years old. Phone Post

Ah, thanks. Willie has always looked like an old man. I saw a video a few months ago of him and his son doing a cover of Pearl Jams Breathe and it was awesome! Willie's still got it.
