MMA Junkie reports that Brock Lesnar’s autobiography is due out May 24th. The former UFC champ and current TUF coach wrote the book with Paul Heyman.
Via MMA Junkie:
Although notoriously closed-guarded and rarely one to seek out publicity, Lesnar promises to speak openly about his pro-sports career and life outside of competition.
The 208-page title retails for $25.99. The book follows recent releases from the likes of Chuck Liddell, Matt Hughes, Randy Couture and Brian Stann.
Payout Perspective:
Lesnar’s contribution to the literary community will be interesting since it is being co-written by Paul Heyman. How much of Heyman’s creative stamp on this book may determine its success. The book could be interesting if it delves into the decisions to get into wrestling, the NFL, the UFC and his recent near-death experience. But, based on Lesnar’s seclusion from all, I don’t think we’ll get any of it. By the way, I remember when autobiographies occurred at the end of careers, after having experienced a lifetime of worthy experiences. Not saying Lesnar hasn’t had some worthy stories, but the book seems untimely. And its only 208 pages.
Hopefully, the marketing for this book will be better than this. Let’s hope Paul E has his hand in the marketing.
I feel like puking just by looking at the cover!
Yawn.
If he can make a few bucks out of this good for him. I won’t be buying it. What’s the line on “Death Clutch” making Oprah’s Book of the Month Club?
