Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 83c — Grandmaster Ray Wizard, Black Karate Federation, LA, CA USA (3 of 3)
Q: What advice would you have for someone wanting to start out in the martial arts?
Wizard encourages people of any age to begin, emphasizing that karate requires learning the basics, repeating movements, and putting in time to develop reliable technique.
Episode 83c — Grandmaster Ray Wizard, Black Karate Federation, LA, CA USA (3 of 3)
Q: So how did that come about?
A student entered Wizard's name for the Gracie challenge, but the Gracies declined him. Later, UFC organizers called and invited him to compete; he accepted after being promised a place in the next tournament, which he hoped would take place in Japan.
Episode 83b — Grandmaster Ray Wizard, Black Karate Federation, LA, CA USA (2 of 3)
Q: What made the fights with Damon Gilbert so tough, and how did you prepare for him?
Wizard says Gilbert was a strong, hard-hitting counterfighter with excellent timing. Wizard studied his opponents and planned to move first, attack with multiple strikes, and make Gilbert move first so he could counter.
Episode 83b — Grandmaster Ray Wizard, Black Karate Federation, LA, CA USA (2 of 3)
Q: What was involved in the California Blitz?
Wizard describes a lead-hand back knuckle followed by a reverse punch, sometimes followed by another reverse punch. He used footwork and different entries to obscure when he would attack and catch opponents off guard.
Episode 83a — Grandmaster Ray Wizard, Black Karate Federation, LA, CA USA (1 of 3)
Q: How did you get into that?
Wizard began doing nightclub security to earn money while traveling to tournaments. The work led to managing security teams and, through contacts with entertainers, providing personal protection.
