Rob Ingram, better known as the dynamic force behind the viral "McDojoLife" social media phenomenon, shares his unexpected journey through Florida's notorious club boxing scene in the early 2000's. Ingram teams up with writer Louis Martin, award-winning author of "The True Believers" and bestseller "How You Bear It" to tell his crazy story from beginning to end. From a severely bullied middle schooler with a cleft lip and palate, to a seasoned fighter competing in bars before he was old enough to drink. Rob was thrown into a world of unlicensed boxing where the rules were few and a premium was placed on entertaining a drunken crowd who was prone to losing control. Rob struggles to balance his night life as a teenage fighter with being a normal high schooler trying to pass his classes, date a girl, find a job, and not get grounded by his parents. Senseis, Bars, and Scars is the crazy, true story of Jacksonville's infamous "patron fights" that were ultimately declared illegal and shut down by the end of the decade. At the height of it's insanity, Rob was right in the middle it all, including: Matches that pitted drunken patrons against seasoned boxers. Seeing his sensei set on fire in a massive fireball in a nightclub. Group fights with up to six combatants in a ring. A full-on riot that spilled out of a nightclub and onto the streets of Jacksonville. Through it all, Rob deals with bigger questions about hero worship in martial arts, friendship, intimacy, and how much risk he is willing to take for martial arts.
