Nice vid as always, KK. Watching the first one reminded why I like the lead-leg sidekick so damned much. Also reminded me that the guy I sometimes tend to associate too easily with straight-to-video/straight-to-cable B-movies had some serious skills in his day; it's amazing how much power he seems to generate with so little effort.
Damn he looks like hes 42. Anyway I thought he did pretty well against Cooper for a guy with an old-school karate-based kickboxing style. Why coldnt he compete in MMA? He doesnt have to be a force but he could do it once just to say he did it.
