Tapped Out: Rear Naked Chokes, the Octagon and the Last Emperor: An Odyssey in Mixed Martial Arts
Matthew Polly
When he was younger, Matthew Polly travelled to the Shaolin Temple in China and spent two years training with the order of monks who had invented the ancient art of kung fu. Fifteen years later, his weakness for Chinese takeout and Jack Daniel’s had taken its toll.
