Was he retired when K-1 came out and was he famous in Japan in the 1980's considering K-1 was not about then and Kickboxing wasn't as popular as it was in the 1970's and what it became in the 1990's.
It's a shame K-1 never happend in the 1980's.

No way anyone, even Kaman is going to win against a guy with the name "Jean Claude" in a kickboxing match.

[canadian mongoo]

he beat jean yves (theriault)

kickboxing was way more mainstream in the 80s than the 70s......even had a cover of sports illustrated ....thurman vs theriault fight....


in the late 80s money got better and surprise every dog and pony show ran kickboxing events...(sound familiar mma fans)

Did he fight in Japan before K-1.
