Tarmac Warrior

Meer over het boek

Billy Cribb was one of the greatest bare-knuckle fighters of his generation. Revealing an underground fight scene rarely glimpsed by those on the outside, Tarmac Warrior traces Billy's career from his first fights on the motorways around Britain to the cross-channel ferries which provided an arena for many of his early fights. It then follows Billy's move to Majorca, giving a frightening insight into the timeshare racketeering, extortion, and organized crime which lie under the surface of the popular holiday destination. Billy goes on to recount his move to the USA, where he sank deeper into the world of drugs and violence. He becomes a debt-collector for the Mafia and a star fighter in the Mafia-run fight syndicates of New York and the cult fight circuit in California. Years later he returned to Britain as a reformed drug addict who had found religion.
