 Bill "Superfoot" Wallace
Bill Wallace retired as the undefeated Professional Karate Association (PKA) Middleweight Champion after defeating Bill Biggs in a 12-round bout in June 1980.
Usually operating far outside his opponent's critical distance line, Wallace was able to penetrate the distance within a fraction of a second and score with his whip-like roundhouse kick, a technique he used about 90 percent of the time.
One of Wallace's most noble attributes was that he freely shared the secrets of his success while still defending his world kickboxing title, and that included teaching fighters who were potential contenders for his championship.
