“An incredible resource for any fan. In stores on Tuesday, the book is a treasure trove of MMA stories, people and history. From A (David ‘Tank’ Abbott) to Z (Zuffa), all the major players are included with records and recaps of past UFC, Pride and other major events.” — Chicago Sun-Times

“The MMA Encyclopedia is the latest offering from Jonathan Snowden, author of Total MMA, one of the best and most complete accounts of where this sport came from ever written … This is the kind of book that you’ll go back to time-and-again.” — The Province

“[The MMA Encyclopedia is] one of the more exhaustive references you’ll find on the sport of mixed martial arts … I highly recommend the book. Snowden’s first book, Total MMA, was one of the better MMA books I’ve ever read, and this one may be even better.” — Houston Chronicle

“A must-read … puts the fighters, the facts and the fundamentals of the world’s fastest-growing sports at the fingertips of fans of all pages.” — Post and Courier

“A monolith of MMA goodness in softcover format.

“Hundreds of pages jam-packed with so much mixed martial arts history, facts, interviews, detail, and dramatic photography, can leave you with multiple headaches if you read it too fast … Take time to enjoy this read, it is a book you will want to read over and over again.” — Ringside Report

“Hands down, no contest the best single volume reference work yet written on Mixed Martial Arts, Pride and the UFC. It's a very fun read too.” — Bloody Elbow
