Gene LeBell has passed.

His toughness was exceeded only by his gentleness.

A true martial artist, and I he Godfather of MMA, he faced the #5 LHW boxer (Milo Savage, also an amateur wrestler) and choked him the fuck out.

I was fortunate enough to to train at Gene and Gokor's place...Gene was irreplaceable
