There are fighters who win titles. And then there are fighters who change the way a sport is played. Rob Kaman was the second kind.
For two decades, the Dutch-Moroccan kickboxer competed at the very top of kickboxing and Muay Thai, collecting nine world championships and delivering knockouts with every weapon available to him. His stance-switching style was revolutionary. His low kick was a weapon unto itself. His nickname, Mr. Low Kick, was not branding. It was a technical statement about how he approached a fight.
A new documentary traces his career from first bout to final fight, covering his championship runs, his greatest moments inside the ring, and his appearances in action films alongside Jean-Claude Van Damme.
For anyone serious about combat sport history, or simply about understanding how the low kick became the weapon it is today, this is essential viewing.
The full article, with a deeper look at what made Kaman's technical approach so ahead of its time, is on dojoandring.com.
