Rep Power: 0 | | | Baxter Humby - Only Man to win World Champ Titles with ONE HAND!
Baxter Humby is the only man to win World Championship titles with one hand...
Q: Do you guys think Humby's opponents fall into a trap of overconfidence &/or lack ferociousness due to his disability? OR is he really that good?
Either way, I think this guy is so inspiring...
Muay Thai Rules!

Rep Power: 59 | | | I have a couple fights on vhs from a trip my Sifu took to Russia. A one-armed fighter is on the tournament card. Best part is the look on the Russian fighters face when he realizes he has to fight a guy with one arm...

Rep Power: 10 | | | yeah, I watched a wrestler with one leg at work and it was one of the most badass things I've ever seen. He seriously looked like cobra striking out.
you have to remember that when a person looses a limb, their center of gravity shifts making for a totally unique fighting style. Plus loosing a limb allows them to fight at a much lower weight class then they normally would. Physically handicapped folk love using their problems to an advantage.
