Don Wilson

Who is this guy don "the dragon" wilson? I just saw a fight of him with dewy cooper where dewy lost on points. Does anyone know about this guy? His stance is sooooooooooooooooooooo retarded and his record is like 70-5. WTF who did this guy fight special ed kids? He stands exactly to the side, with his side facing his opponent throwing a bunch of lame ass right kicks. Man i just wanted to jump into the screen and tear him up for his stupid fighting style. Has anyone ever KOed em?

This is probably one of those questions that annoys hardcore kickboxing fans but I'm pretty curious too.

I know the guy was a SHITTY movie star and used to commentate for KOTC, that's it.

Hey, he wasn't a bad kickboxer, at least it was a real fighter in those B movies, and btw Don commentated for the UFC too for several events around 1996-1997

tank abbot refers to him as "don dragonfly wilson"

=P

In a career which spanned 4 decades, he won 11 world kick-boxing championships, among them the WKA, STAR, WKC, PKO Lightheavyweight World Championships, WKA, STAR, ISKA World Cruiserweight Titles, and the WKA and STAR Super-Lightheavyweight World Championships. He posted a record of 71-5-2 with 47 wins by knockout. Wilson defeated such world champions as Dennis Alexio, Oaktree Edwards, and Dick Kimber. He retired from the sport in 1990, but launched a comeback on May 14, 1999. Since his return he has knocked-out Dick Kimber and defeated Dewey Cooper.

Considered as the greatest kickboxing champion in history by who?

I'd rate Ramon Dekkers & Rob Kamen above him.
