Fightnomics
Fightnomics does a fantastic job of tackling the myths of the sport and presenting new and potentially revolutionary theories. There's a ton of information to digest here, but it's worth sifting through to find each golden nugget of truth behind the numbers. Ultimate Fighting Championship just celebrated its 20th anniversary late last year, and with detailed analysis and modern statistics from books like Fightnomics  leading the charge, the next 20 years look very bright indeed.     -Brian Hemminger, MMAOddsbreaker.comAnything can happen in MMA, right? You've heard the cliché ad nauseum over the years. You've probably uttered it a few times yourself. And betting on MMA? Such a crapshoot. In a sport where everyone has a puncher's chance, you can lose your money literally seconds into a fight. Reed Kuhn is out to dispel this MMA myth through statistics and quantitative analysis with his new book Fightnomics. One of the many things he uncovered was a betting trend that could change the way we look at MMA gambling forever.     -Marc Raimondi, Fox Sports.com"Basically, what the authors have done is to take MMA and break down  every aspect of the sport to find out, based on the thousands of fights  we have to reference now, what works, what doesn’t, and why that is so.  In other words, this isn’t a book stating that “____” fight system is  better because so-and-so trains it or that “_____” is a superior fighter  because his training is done with shaolin monks or some nonsense like  that. Rather is is an honest look at the numbers behind every aspect of  MMA."     -The Rhino Den
