Mario Gullette I didn’t know he was a grandmaster. I’m surprised somebody who is as well known and as he was/ is, there are no TH-cam videos of his promotions
7th Degree Black Belt Billy Blanks had one of the greatest karate fight records in the sport's long history. Blanks was a 7-time world karate champion, the first Amateur Athletic Union Champ in 1975, the 1984 Massachusetts Golden Gloves Boxing Champion, and the Tri-State Golden Gloves Champion of Champions. He was the captain of the United States Karate Team and won over 30 gold medals in international competition. He was the number 1 or number 2 rated full-contact karate fighter in the United States for almost seven straight years. His epic battles with "Nasty" Anderson are legends among martial arts fans. He posted over 300 career victories. In 1982, Billy Blanks was honored by being inducted into the Karate Hall of Fame.
Thanks for sharing! A sense of humor is always a plus! He had some good kicks ... watching his movies! Glad his tae bo worked out for him.... wish he'd do a few more movies... play a detective or something!
When Billy Blanks had a dojo, in Quincy MA. He was there for belt advancement tests.. later on, after it was done, I overheard him say, "How pathetic".. we did on the tests.. yet we all advanced! Thank you, for caring more about your own future career.. by that, you taught me more of a valuable lesson..
Former student as well. I remember Billy and was Greatest martial artist and teacher i ever knew. I trained in Rockland in 80's. Very small school next to a gym. Fun days!
EU COMECEI A FAZER TAEKENDO POR CAUSA DESSE ATOR BILLI BLANK. ERA 1990. ENTREI E ME FORMEI EM 2000 MESTRE DA ARTE. OBR PELO FILME QUE VC ATUOU. O REI DO KIKIBOX
I put the one Bolo Yeung said in saying to see if people could guess the movie. Then someone said that I was wrong and that is not what Bruce Lee said. I advised that person to watch the movie it came from. I wish I could have seen their face when they heard Bolo say that.
Definitely priority to be in great shape for a multitude of reasons, health being number 1. However, there's plenty of REAL martial artists and actual fighters that are wider than they should be that have wisdom, experience and knowledge than most people that are "in shape." That's only a piece of the puzzle
a very young 30 year-old Billy. dude was a playa. his hands and feet did not feel good after this, trust me. did you read his auto-b? he's amazing and is paying the price now. I feel bad for his hands and feet now. so sad.
Oh man I didn't dry out that brick long enough. Give me the what the widest black belt you have ate dried out boards and some oven roasted bricks. Just goof and I'd like the guy he did a lot for workouts and I seen him in a tournament before Ohio man it was 1980sa long time ago seem to be a really great guy high five
When he is breaking the concrete slabs, it appears that a metal spike falls to the floor, to his right. I wonder how much magic is taking place here. 🤔
Lol.. having a session at the Blanks dojo, this particular class was centered around breaking wood. Then at the time (junior high 80's) that same week our shop teacher showed us how is it was. And even pointed out and mentioning that the martial arts guys (breaking wood) isn't that impressive. Unless a flying front air kick..
When breaking evil boards you must first take shirt off. Lol. 80s style. This is a comedy right? Ps.. blanks and Anderson both seemed to gain 25 pounds of muscle in the same year. Healthy eating I guess.
I love Grand Master Billy Blanks, he's a martial artist & a fitness expert!

Bruce Lee: "Boards don't hit back"
Bolo Yeung: "Very good, but brick not hit back"
I put the one Bolo Yeung said in saying to see if people could guess the movie. Then someone said that I was wrong and that is not what Bruce Lee said. I advised that person to watch the movie it came from. I wish I could have seen their face when they heard Bolo say that.
Except I have seen more Billy Blanks competitive fights than Bruce Lee or Bolo. So they can't talk.
Bloodsport baby!
My adolescent hero billy
I remember seeing a picture of him training with Marine Security Guard Battalion in Bahrain in the Command offices there. Cool.
When it doesn't break. Ouch!!
My role model
Billy Blanks and Michael Jai White should do a collaboration project together.
They would make a great movie , like king of the kick boxers
White and blanks thats funny
Congratulacions my Brother OSS🙏💪🏼😦😧👊👊
3:29 that poor guys hands... What a champ to comeback for round 2.
too many so called experts have waist line greater than 38, sometimes 40 inches. Unacceptable. good to see guy in good shape.

We used steel bars as spacers. We tried using pencils but he would smash the pencils during the breaks.
COOL G RAPP
He looks like Westley Snipes !
Fucking Joe Rogan said that breaking boards was so easy, even a grandma could do it. LOL
