Benny The Jet Urquidez
Benny Urquidez (born June 20, 1952) is an American kickboxer, martial arts choreographer and actor.
Nicknamed The Jet, Urquidez was a non-contact karate competitor who later pioneered full-contact fighting in the USA. He made the transition from point to full-contact karate in 1974 – the year of its inception in the US – frequently fighting in bouts where the rules were ambiguous and contrasts in styles were dramatic. Between 1974 and 1993, he amassed a record of 58-0-0 (win-loss-draw) with 49 knockouts and three controversial no-contests (The Star System Computer Ratings listed Urquidez as 56-1-1, 47 knockouts in 1984 & 1985). On his own official webpage, Urquidez lists his record as 63-0, with 57 knockouts. Black Belt Magazine voted Urquidez "Fighter of the Year" in 1978.
