Good shout Dan that guy is a legend.

Totally agree, I did a seminar with Bill Wallace when I was a student in about 1999. He'd been retired from fighting for 20 or so years and was still amazing. You just couldn't pick whether he was going to do a hook kick, side kick or round kick or what height he was going to throw it. Plus his boxing skills were very very good, but suppose if you're called superfoot then people often don't watch the hands!

Fighters I admire from UFC are GSP, Anderson Silva, Randy Couture and BJ Penn. I've also got a soft spot for fighters from the Armory gym like Kurt Pellegrino and Hermes Franca as I trained with some of the Armory guys last summer.

I'm also a big fan of Buakow Pro Pramuk in K1 Max. Plus Kid Yamamoto and Genki Sudo in K1 Heroes.

Fighters I admire? Hmmm, though question. But I will have to say I admire Jay Warwick. Jay Warwick accomplished a lot for the 1988 Olympics in TKD and still was working full time.

Out of today's fighters? I admire Randy Couture having had a similar background in wrestling.
