Jim Kelly

anyone remember/seen Jim Kelly's movies. If so what are your thoughts about them. I just saw the Tattoo connection earlier today and it was amazing.

I saw The Black Samurai and he was way too cool.

In Enter The Dragon, his style is "American Kenpo"

hes one of my influences. his actual style is Shorin Ryu

another good flick for him is 3 the hard way with fred williamson an Jim brown

and one down 2 to go, which was his last film besides doing cameos an a few commercials.

only thing i dont like is how they had him die first in enter the dragon. he didnt like it much either lol

he said "man....im a black belt but yet i end up being the first an only guy to die, but John Saxon was only a brown belt at the time and dude survived through the end"

Dudes with afros are cool. Seriously, Jim Kelly was kicking some major ass in Bruce Lee's (Enter the Dragon). He showed moves that are recreated in most recent martial arts based films these days. Both Jim Kelly's and Bruce Lee's styles were similar based on the fact that they were trained by the same instructor (inside information).

If you google Jim Kelly you'l get a lot of information about his career. Be careful though there is another Jim Kelly out.

Jim Kizzle is actually known more overseas than in America. When martial arts was becoming popular. A lot of the films made were produced, directed in countries such as China, Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea etc. As the year's progressed he became more and more popular.

There is a hall of fame quarterback for the Buffalo Bills that also named Jim Kelly. He took the Bills to the 4 straight Superbowl but never won one.....

Hey Complete. Do you consider Jim Kelly have a profound career even though he couldn't win the big game?

vintage Jim Kelly tournament match hehe


"its not the art, but the combat you enjoy!"



kinda interesting how Jim, Bill Wallace, and Joe Lewis trained in the same branch of Shorin-ryu Karate

and they all had the same side horse stance with back knuckle and side kick as main weapons

These tributes to Jim Kelly are vintage and can't be touched. I really like the old school videos it can help us new martial artist adapt and appreciate what's happening. Jim Kelly is one of the coolest black dudes that has ever lived.
