Summary

"He is the biggest pay-per-view attraction in the world. He is "the Baddest Dude on the Planet.' "

He is Brock Lesnar.

For countless fans of professional wrestling and mixed martial arts, Brock Lesnar has long been known for his freakish athleticism, mind-blowing speed, and meteoric rise to the top. Yet despite the fame and fortune that have come with his enormous success, Brock has shunned the media, choosing instead to remain intensely private about his life and his accomplishments.

Now, for the first time, he tells his remarkable story in his own words, describing the journey from his South Dakota farmboy roots to becoming the most popular pay-per-view attraction in the world. From the small-town amateur wrestling where he honed his skills to taking on The Rock at SummerSlam, Brock discusses how his natural athletic talent combined with the dark side of the wrestling business to make him the youngest-ever WWE World Champion.

Epic as it was, Brock's overnight rise to fame came with a price, as he saw firsthand the toll that life on the road and in the ring could take on a pro wrestler's body and mind. Weary of the punishing lifestyle and backstabbing politics, he chose to do the unthinkable: walk away from professional wrestling at the peak of his career and break all ties with the organization that made him a star on the global stage. It was a move that stunned WWE executives and fans alike, and one that Brock himself has never fully explained - until now.

Not one to stay quiet for long, Brock was soon back in the spotlight: this time in the UFC - home of the most dangerous mixed martial arts fighters in the world. Here he offers a behind-the-scenes look at his shocking decision to leave the wrestling entertainment business for a legitimate combat sport. From training to be a real fighter, to immediately being thrown into the Octagon against the UFC's best heavyweights, to the psychology behind his legendary trash-talking, Brock opens up about what it takes not only to succeed in the world's fastest-growing sport but to become the Undisputed Heavyweight Champion of the World. He also speaks candidly about the illness that nearly killed him, how it changed him as a fighter and a man, and how it shaped his will to survive.

In the end, Brock holds nothing back. A revealing, raw, and ultimately redemptive tale of Brock's determination and domination, DeathClutch is the untold true story of becoming one of life's true champions.

Brock is Brock

As a massive wrestling fan I really enjoyed seeing into the mind of the very famous yet very private Lesnar. I really respect Lesnar’s honesty and how he thinks and feels and he doesn’t give a f**k if you don’t like it. Brock is just BROCK.

Brilliant insight into wrestling to the UFC and as much of his life that he wishes to reveal. Respect his privacy and his no B.S. this is what I think and either you like it or you don’t. Can really relate to that.

Really shows he isnt this dumb brutal monster and that there’s a real human being behind his tough exterior who cares for his family and has a serious heart. Earned a whole new respect for the man

great for fans

really enjoyed it, not a typical story he's a money motivated guy and has achieved loads in a short time. left feeling a bit mugged off in the end for buying into his book and him leaving it on a cliff hanger but I don't regret buying it. wouldn't buy any sequel books though.

Meathead mentality initially off putting but you'll get used to it

Somewhat well written story of Brock Lesnar's life

Highlights of the book include the chapters describing his disputes with WWE Vince Mahon, the book takes a few hours to get going and despite my couple hours of doubt, I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Poor

Poorly written rubbish which could have been so good. Brock Lesnar comes across as a complete idiot and i would urge anybody not to waste their time with this garbage.

Infuriating read

If you would like to hear a repetitive list of all the celebrities and famous sportsmen that Brock Lesnar knows, and hear him repetitively talk about how he's tougher than everyone ever, this is the book for you!
