Is that really the one? The way he seemed to describe it, it was an even smaller, more private affair.

he was a great fighter.
an incredibly talented martial artist but he never owned up to being beaten.

He was a beast of a man indeed. Hands like Duran and kicks better than Chuck Norris. One of the few Americans who didn’t get absolutely destroyed by the Thais.

can’t say for certain but when it first came on the web it was listed as being the infamous death match.

I saw Force Five on TV as a kid and noticed the littlest dude seemed like the baddest dude out of the whole team. Took note of his name in the credits and then later found out he was legit champion level kickboxer.

So this should just be called a challenge match or a death match, given that a kumite is one dude fighting multiple dudes in a row. but yeah benny the jet was a bad motherfucker

Benny really lived up to the toughness of that song.

Benny knew he wasn’t under a real threat so he was able to have fun and show off his full arsenal of techniques.
all of his different spinning attacks which are a thing of beauty.

Friend of mine trained with Benny in LA
