He reminds me of of Matt Horwich. Hes Unique

@kcborg Indeed. There was much more than fighting in those two men. You can even listen to Steve Irwin and feel the same thing from him. All of these people, died too young. I wanted to meet Steve Irwin since I was a kid. Bruce Lee would be 70 years old around this time.

I'm sure you already know, but its going to come at a great cost, with plenty of sacrifice and alot of money gone.
But keep your head up, and train hard.

A very moving tribute, what a class act, a great champion, he will be remembered.
-
Listen to him and listen to Bruce Lee. Two very different men, but both were very spiritual in their own way. Not too many fighters see themselves as humans.

Great men dont deserve to be taken before their time. He was a great man

I had the pleasure and privilege of coaching Evan at the Maverick Boys and Girls Club in Amarillo,Tx....Years later,after I became a correctional officer,he showed me how to apply a more effective wrist -lock, which I ended up using on an offender in a fracas. Student and teacher himself, never afraid to learn all he could. Godbless to him and his family. This world is not a better place without him, but I know he went on to a better world.

Thanks for comments, Im not the star-struck type...But he is one person I would have wanted to meet in person. His struggles with life and his ability to make it so public, made him an accountable man.
