Fighter: The Chris Leben Story Full Documentary

December 3, 2018 By Laura Dal Farra Leave a Comment

Chris Leben Bare Knuckle

After being diagnosed with a severe heart condition and forced into early retirement, UFC fighter Chris “The Crippler” Leben returned to the ring to battle Phil Baroni in the World Bare Knuckle Fighting Federation’s first championship match on November 9.  Fighting in the light heavyweight division, Leben defeated Baroni by first-round TKO.  Leben’s reputation as both a brawler and a Dionysian-level partier started on the inaugural season of The Ultimate Fighter reality show, and was maintained during his ten year career in the UFC.

Fighter: The Chris Leben Story follows Leben as he makes his return to the ring to fight Baroni after a two year hiatus from fighting. In this three part series we get a closer look at Leben, aspects of his training, his mental game both inside and outside the ring, and the dietary and lifestyle changes that have completely turned his health around.  We also get to watch his bare knuckle win over Baroni.

Chris Leben currently coaches and fights out of The Arena combats sports gym in San Diego, California.

About Laura Dal Farra

After a six month adventure training Muay Thai in Thailand in 2007, Laura Dal Farra returned to her native Canada, sold most of what she owned, and boarded a plane set for Bangkok alone. She spent the next 3.5 years training in traditional Muay Thai gyms, pushing her limits, and embracing the unknown. Realizing little was being written on the subject, she began to blog about it. Laura Dal Farra is the founder of Milk.Blitz.Street.Bomb.
