Got Fight? is acknowledged as a bad title in the book, and it's partly about how to succeed as a fighter, but also as almost an anti-self help book on how to get through life as a cynical average person with no special skills going for you. Or maybe it is that the term douche bag is used so often in the book that I can't help but love it. Maybe it's because this book is so self-deprecating and that Forrest Griffin seems to have an active dislike for the same types of douche bags that I do that the book appeals to me so much. I'm certain that this is funnier than Augusten Burrough's newest romp into his dysfunctional past, or Chuck Klosterman's milking of his generation X astuteness. I haven't read the funniest, but I'm guessing it is David Cross's book Why I Drink. This is possibly the second funniest book that will come out this year.
