Los Angeles, CA – September 24, 2012: The new Autobiography Uncaged: My Life as a Champion MMA Fighter (Chicago Review Press) written by Frank Shamrock with Charles Fleming, is the remarkable and riveting story of Mixed Martial Arts Legend Frank Shamrock. Readers embark on an inspirational journey, as Shamrock personally guides them through the depths of his memories, sharing intimate details of his turbulent path from a troubled juvenile to a respected sports Legend.
Shamrock bares all as he reveals intimate details about his troubled childhood filled with abuse, neglect and petty crime. He speaks candidly about his turbulent relationship with his adopted brother Ken, problems he had with the Ultimate Fighting Championship and the reasons behind his retirement. Shamrock also shares vivid accounts of his fights both in and out of the ring, giving readers a rare glimpse into the life of a fighter.
Uncaged: My Life as a Champion MMA Fighter begins with Shamrock’s early childhood when he was living with his hippie mother and abusive stepfather in a shed behind their house. He reveals the circumstances which led to his time in numerous juvenile detention centers and how he eventually became a ward of the state. He then goes on to detail his salvation under the foster father who took him in when no one else would, his descent into drugs, alcohol and increasingly serious crimes that landed him in state prison and his eventual rebirth as a mixed martial arts champion that dominated the entire sport for two decades.
Outside of the cage Shamrock has become one of MMA’s most recognized television personalities and can be seen regularly on Showtime Sports as a color commentator for Strikeforce.
