Only four days after bidding farewell to Lau Kar Leung the martial arts world has lost another legend:martial artist/actor Jim Kelly passed way on June 29th from cancer.
Jim broke out in a big way playing Williams in ENTER THE DRAGON&would go on to a series of starring roles in his own right:BLACK BELT JONES,HOT POTATO,THREE THE HARD WAY,THE TATTOO CONNECTION,BLACK SAMURAI&DEATH DIMENSION.I'd always wished he could've made a film with real life mentor Ron Van Clief;sadly,it wasn't to be.My deepest condolences go out to Jim's loved ones.
