Description
Mixed martial arts is a sport that has skyrocketed in popularity in recent years. Fighters are becoming celebrities, and MMA gala events sell out domestic arenas. However, one name on the home scene stands out above all others: Karlos Vémola. As the first Czech, he experienced the world's most famous wrestling league, the UFC. After returning home, he became an icon, and his story attracted masses of viewers to MMA. Today, dozens of fighters are grateful to him, as his popularity has helped them rise to prominence. How did a young delinquent with a vision impairment become a determined man who always pursued his goals? How did his parents' divorce, his bodybuilding career, and his job as a bouncer in a London club influence him? This book reveals the life story of Karlos Vémola, full of ups and downs, including the most painful moment when he was knocked out by rival Attila Végh in front of a sold-out O2 Arena. But the Terminator's journey certainly doesn't end there.
