An amazing story, what is so remarkable is how much he relates to the honour of warriors in a battle; none of this bravado, mockery and insults that many modern day fighters choose to display. It went way beyond sport and yet Benny remained humble, always acknowledging any good strike by his opponent. Ultimately, he gained the respect of not only the partisan crowd but also martial art enthusiasts the world over.

I have met Mr. Urquidez once on street in West Hollywood. I have never met a person like him. He was totally controlling his emotions. He showed me his no proud look, neither mimic humiliated attitude. He was gentle, and courteous. He showed me his gym where he was training stuntmen and women. He emphasized me that the stretching and flexibility are vital. His smooth walking was emanating atmosphere of a dancer, rather than a martial artist.

I appreciate you so much, brother. Im glad for that I left there and living with my mother now. It is my responsibility to take care of her. Im so blessed for that I have people who encourage and support me to take care of her now. Even though my friends who lived with their parents suffered from the dimentia/Alzheimer disease have shared their experiences in past, it is not easy to deal with on the 24/7 bases. I ask HIm to dwell in me to continousely change my response towards her and others. In this way, I might perceive my life better. Im still looking for a church where I can belong to as a member. Im working on to study at the Univ of Maryland in the US Military Bases in Okinawa, Japan now. Not the Univ of Texas although it's available here, because Univ of Manyland is here is where my dad earned the AA degree before he transferred to the Sophia University in Tokyo. Hope you understand that Im not personally againsting to the Texans. I live near Gate #5 of USMC Camp Butler/Foster in Chatan, Okinawa in Japan. Ive ran 4km today on and by the Humbee Beach where is in my hood. Running on the beach avoids the knee injure, but builds the strength the muscles on thighs and calves. I run on toes when on the hard grounds. Peace,

You have always been an inspiration to me. I bought a book authored by you, and learned kickboxing from that...never really took any formal lessons. I still have that one punch knockout power...well at least in my right hand...and I'm 58 yrs old!!! THANK YOU BENNIE THE JET!!!

You STILL have so much to give that I hope you're around for a long, long time. I actually laughed when I heard it said you were 143 pounds. Why? Because 143 pounds is a GIANT sized talent that we've all been blessed to see in the form of Sensei Benny "The Jet" Urquidez.

Benny, you are the very spark that got me now passionate about boxing!! You have this special presence and passion and love (hard to explain..) that are so different and contagious-like I see the dude from the “They Live” film with all of his freedom spirit and scent from the eighties. Much blessings and joy and health to you! I was just watching videos around, disappointed with the way they made us practice aikido in here, then seeing how effective boxing is I watched video after video but couldn’t relate to a posture of stooping forward, hands in front of face,. Then suddenly I saw one of your videos, you with a very unusual guard, relaxed posture, arms opened, offering excellent visibility and tricking the opponent to enter...then suddenly I felt this special magic thing that you project (besides the obvious effectiveness of such an approach), and I feel you like real inspiration. .. next thing I have to find a club haha but do have a punchbag.

You have this special presence and passion and love (hard to explain..) that are so different and contagious-like I see the dude from the “They Live” film with all of his freedom spirit and scent from the eighties. Much blessings and joy and health to you! I was just watching videos around, disappointed with the way they made us practice aikido in here, then seeing how effective boxing is I watched video after video but couldn’t relate to a posture of stooping forward, hands in front of face,. Then suddenly I saw one of your videos, you with a very unusual guard, relaxed posture, arms opened, offering excellent visibility and tricking the opponent to enter...then suddenly I felt this special magic thing that you project (besides the obvious effectiveness of such an approach), and I feel you like real inspiration. .. next thing I have to find a club haha but do have a punchbag. Cheers!!
старый воин...я до сих пор на него раввняюсь....
Very interesting. Taking the clinch away changes things. Very tough fighters.
Amazinng
A REAL warrior!
Настоящие бойцы!
Nicely done.
Un GRAN MAESTRO!!
Just dusted off his book written in 1981. Thumbed through it and man it is crammed with combat wisdom.
COOL !!!!
Such a great humble guy, lots of integrity and a fantastic warrior too. Had this been a gracie talking it wouldnt be like this at all. It would have been like "Gracie jujitsu is the best. You can rely on it. You cant rely on other arts. Learn Gjj, other arts dont work". The gracies only know two things. ....Never admitting a loss and shamelessly promoting thier own art.
The great man
my love the jet
Total legend. Curious about the not willing to wear shorts though. Modern day fighters should follow his example.
Balls to the wall. A real warrior.
Great fight 👍💪🙏!!
you are an honorable warrior

Un orgullo.. Benny is the greatest
I say Benny the jet has great concentration and speed strength. I love this man style. in fighting this man is a great fighter just as Bruce Lee was these guys are two of my favorite Fighters.
I also like that feel of long pants, That sound of cloth in the air push me to be faster, I feel faster and maybe because of it I am faster. Amazing to hear from Benny about this fight, about that feeling, that Tremendous Will in his eyes, in his heart, true warior.
awsome story
A fuckin LEGENDARY fight🤘🤕
Always remember no matter how good you are you can have a very bad day. and return to avenge that bad day. But also remember if haven't ever lost you haven't anyone.
