No
fight fan’s bookcase would be complete without this classic piece of
literature.
Watch
My Back
cuts
straight to the bone, retracing the giant footsteps of an insecure young
Thompson, who took up a fighting art to stop being bullied, only to be
abused by his instructor, before then signing up for work on the door of
some of England’s toughest nightclubs and bars, where Geoff then stood
toe to toe with his demons.
This
is an incredible journey that, fueled by blood, sweat and tears – and
a truckload of guts – turned Geoff Thompson into the world’s most
famous doorman.
In
his book, Geoff discusses the shortfalls of a dojo-manufactured fighter
against the battle-proven street fighter, and shows how Thompson
transformed his life by setting hurdles for himself, which enabled him
to go from being a victim to later in life confronting the number one
bully from his past.
Watch
My Back
is
a true classic.
