I have been waiting for this book to release since I first heard about Victory Belt publishing, Anderson Silva’s “striking” volume in his upcoming book series. So, to get to the point I was not disappointed.

The layout, images, and format of this book is top notch and there are literally hundreds of full color photographs printed on glossy paper to ensure their richness and clarity, and this is just the aesthetic properties of this book, and I haven’t even got to the quality of the actual content, which is nothing short of fantastic.

The first few chapters of techniques are all movement and defensive based. Checks, parries, slips, foot work, blocking with high guard, and circling out are all covered in thorough detail. The next few chapters cover all of Anderson’s striking techniques. These chapters focus on the base technique it’s self (without combos or counters). The pictures show in multiple angles with and without opponent, to show the accurate way to execute these techniques. The attacks cover the entire range of strikes you’ll see from Anderson Silva, or anyone else for that matter. Everything from inside cut kicks to spinning rear elbows are covered. There’s a chapter for punches, elbows, kicks, and knees covering each in heavy detail.  Here is an outline of the essential techniques covered in this book.

1. STANCES & FOOTWORK

A. Stances
B. Footwork

2. COUNTER MOVEMENT

A. Evasive Techniques
B. Parries and Blocks
C. Checking Techniques

3. STRIKING TECHNIQUES

4. ATTACKS

5. COUNTERATTACKS

Each section is loaded with sound well-rounded information and goes over numerous techniques and combinations. This is definitely a book that any aspiring MMA fighter wants to own in order to improve their fighting skills in the cage. I would highly recommend this book without any reservations whatsoever. Here are two other books that I would also recommend.
