International Middle Weight Karate Champion (1971)

Was first interested in karate after leaving the University of Louisville as a freshman and moving to Lexington; began studying martial arts under karate instructor Parker Sheldon

Became a professional tennis player in 1975, rising to No. 2 in California in the senior men's doubles rankings and reaching the state's top ten in senior men's singles.

Also in 2002 appeared as himself in Undercover Brother...no newer news than that.

When a man's fortunate time comes, he meets a good friend;

When a man has lost his luck, he meets a beautiful woman.

He was also in a Lebron James commercial.

"What's your style?"

"My style?"

"You can call it the art of fighting without fighting."

I saw a major update about him in Black Belt magazine and I believe it was around 16-18 months ago. I have the past 14 issues right here, and it is not in any of those.

He is about to open a chain of schools based on his new style that he created, which is a mix of his karate and bjj. Unfortunately, I cannot remember anything else about the article. Maybe someone here can dig it up.
