The Spirit of a Champion: The Life and Legacy of Grand Master Scott McNeely is the raw, often hilarious, and deeply human story of a man shaped by five decades on the mat. From a farmboy in Mountain Valley, Arkansas, to a world-stage competitor representing the United States in Greece and Russia — this book doesn’t preach. It shows. It’s filled with stories of brawls, championships, mentors, miracles, close calls, and the kind of wisdom that can only be earned the hard way.
