For readers of leadership books like The 48 Laws of Power and classic Eastern philosophy like the Art of War and the Book of Five Rings, comes martial arts pioneer Urijah “The California Kid” Faber’s guide to mental dominance in and outside the cage, drawing on his experiences as a world champion MMA fighter and top UFC draw to provide readers with an unconventional path to personal success.
What’s your passion?
For Urijah “The California Kid” Faber, fighting is not just a thrill but an act of self-expression. From his first fight in the outlaw MMA days of 2003, Urijah recognized his passion for the sport—and since then the former WEC World Featherweight Champion, now fighting as a top bantamweight in the UFC, has been living his dream. As one of the most exciting, charismatic fighters today, with a loyal following in the MMA community, Urijah is well known for his inventive fight style, cutting-edge approach to fitness, and California swag.
In The Laws of the Ring, Urijah relates the full story of how he has made a career out of a highly demanding sport. Even outside the ring, his passion for fighting has motivated him to do so much more—to open his own fitness center, create a sports clothing line, lead a fight team, and recently to coach up-and-coming fighters in the television show The Ultimate Fighter. But even the California Kid couldn’t do it all without constant hard work, healthy habits, and a whole lot of positive thinking. With his thirty-six “Laws of Power,” Urijah shares the life lessons he’s learned along his unconventional path, drawing from personal experience to give readers a sense of life inside the ring—and show how to take those lessons into their own worlds.
Part manifesto for success, personal journey, and meditation on a well-lived life, The Laws of the Ring is filled with funny, provocative, and inspirational stories for a colorful glimpse into the rise of a young superstar, and the philosophy behind his accomplishments. With clear-eyed perspective and down-to-earth advice, Urijah zeroes in on getting the life you want—and living it to the fullest.
