Heh heh, that it is. And you thought Wilson is 42, getting old are ya? lol

One thing about Don's Record that I like is that he was from the days when Kickboxing had more rounds. Yes they also had a bit of a silly rule-structure, but cardio had to be bananas throwing hands and feet for 12 rounds.

I too wondered about that. 12 rounds when you are doing hands and feet can be an eternity.

Yep the 6 or 8 kics a round rule was kinda ridiculous back in the days but atleast it wasn't a pure boxing match that some fighters do right now.

12 rounds must been a hell to go through !

No i just saw the fight for the first time the other day in a hotel so I thought it was pretty recent.

Bumping this thread for a reason. If you guys check out the video of Don and Branko, Don actually commented himself in the comments section.

Not sure how many of you guys checked the clip to see Don's comments, but I thought I'd post the one he just left because it's just good stuff:

Quote:
Without knowledgeble fans like you guys my history of kickboxing would be lost like "tear drops in the rain" (Bladerunner) I was a wrestler in college before kickboxing and have always felt more comfortable on the ground than on my feet. I was the MVP of both my high school football and basketball teans. MMA came too late for me but I am a mercenary and would gladly fight if the money was "right". Have fun guys and thanks for your support, your friend,

Don
Here's some more clips while I'm at it.

If he was born into a more recent generation, I wonder if he would have gotten into MMA.
