If you watched the early UFC's you will remember Brian Johnston.
At first I didn't think it was him because of the limp and low body weight. I talked to him about his injury. He also had a stroke added to the dsmage he took to his 3 lower Vedabras that where crusted from teaching the fight game in Japan. Sad to see someone that was so fit lose so much from the fight game, but still a nice guy |

I think Brian Johnston was a kickboxer who fought Ken Shamrock once in UFC 10 or something? He also did pancrease I think. Yeah, I also heard became ill.

YOU SAY HE LOOKS LIKE A FAG, BUT THE BOY SURE CAN FIGHT.
IT'S A PITTY TO SEE SUCH A TALLENTED FIGTHER CUT DOWN IN HIS PRIME. BAD LUCK I SAY.

i used to see brian show up at AKA a lot. he used to train there. in fact, i trained under the same guy who trained him in boxing/mt for his fights back in the day. it really is a shame what happened to the guy. i see him sometimes standing off to the side just watching other people train. imagine how hard it would be to not be able to ever train again when you were so into martial arts and fighting. i hope he is ok.

Indeed, what every martial artist fears most,
being seriously injured and not being able to practice the arts again, I really feel bad for the guy, and I hope and wish the best for him and JIMI, seriously bro, you are an asshole, and even though I now have no respect for you, I really hope you dont have to experience what that guy did. He was a pro athlete badly injured, and now only able to watch,, just try to imagine how he feels, now maybe you could apologise for your rude comment

Well, since his last post here was over two years ago, I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for that apology...
