At ten years of age, lined up alongside his two brothers in the living room of
their Seattle home, Jens Pulver stared down the length of a shotgun into his
father's haggard face. Because Jens was the oldest, the one constantly running
upstairs to protect his mother in the middle of the night, his father placed
the barrel into his mouth first. Fear taught Jens how to attack with his
fists. Fear taught him how to get what he wanted, by any means necessary. Fear
put him on the path toward becoming a world champion fighter, to prove wrong
all those who claimed he wouldn't amount to any more than his drunk old man.
It was this path - the one that would make him the most intimidating pound-
for-pound fighter in the ring - that eventually let him put his childhood
demons to rest and find an inner peace. But it was a long and painful battle.
Little Evil is a gripping and true tale of father and son, of what betrayal
does to the young and drives them to do, and of how one determined man
shattered the chains of his childhood and rose to the top, becoming the
lightweight champion of the UFC.
