    RIP Ramon Dekkers

    Reports are coming out of his home town of Breda today that Dekkers was riding his bike when he collapsed in a tunnel after feeling light-headed. A few bystanders attempted to assist him before emergency services arrived and attempted to revive him to no avail.

    Dekkers is a former 8-time world champion and one of the first Dutch Kickboxers to really make an impact in Thailand. He was instrumental in helping the sport of Kickboxing to evolve to what it is today and will always be remembered for his accomplishments in and out of the ring.

            Just read about this before coming on here. Not a big kickboxing fan. I never see it on TV here in the US, so it's nowhere near as big here as in Thailand. Before the UFC came along, there were channels that showed it. I only hear about it now when there's a K-1 show sometimes, but I'm busy enough watching boxing, MMA and my favorite TV shows these days. Sad story indeed though. I know some names because they're in MMA as well though, like Manhoef and Crocop.
