Dancing With The Stars

Mark Dacascos Still Kicking Strong On “Dancing With The Stars”

Mark Dacascos, the accomplished martial artist and actor is still kicking strong on this year’s “Dancing With Stars”.

Some of you might have heard that he won several Kung Fu and Karate championships between the ages of 9 and 18.

This should come as no surprise as Mark’s dad, Al Dacascos, is a legendary martial arts instructor who exposed Mark to martial arts at a very early age.

His step mother, Malia Bernal, is also a martial artist. Mark’s ancestry is diverse. His father is of Filipino, Spanish, and Chinese decent and his mother, Moriko McVey, is of Irish and Japanese decent.

Mark Dacascos has had roles in a number of movies and made numerous television appearances.

He played the lead role of Eric Draven in the TV series entitled The Crow: Stairway to Heaven, which is based on the James O’Barr’s comic book entitled The Crow.

He also stars as The Chairman on the Food Network’s Iron Chef America series.

Currently, Mark Dacascos is doing extremely well in this year’s “Dancing With Stars” and promoting the agility of an open-minded martial artist.

Two thumbs up!

UFC Hall Of Famer Chuck “The Iceman” Liddell On Fire (Again)

Let’s dance, shall we?

This season of “Dancing With The Stars” offers all mixed martial
artists a very familiar face.

Listen up, guys, Chuck “The Iceman” Liddell is one heck of an
ambassador for Mixed Martial Arts and Ultimate Fighting.

You better believe it!

Yours truly just talked to a neighbor who has absolutely nothing
to do with martial arts and isn’t even into Ultimate Fighting, but
who is really impressed with “The Iceman”.

And why, you ask?

This is what I took away: Chuck Liddell has presented himself
as a soft-spoken, almost shy, humble and simply nice guy.
Despite Mohawk and skull tattoos. (Original quote!).

And what really make him impressive is hands down his work
ethic and utter willingness to get out of his comfort zone.

Any other volunteers?

From wrestling mat and karate ring to “The Octagon” and now
to the dance floor judged by millions of TV viewers during prime time!

“I applaud you, Chuck Liddell!”

He has already done martial arts, especially mixed martial arts
and UFC, an outstanding service, no matter how far “The Iceman”
gets during this year’s season of “Dancing With The Stars”.

Who agrees or disagrees? Let your voice be heard.

Just in case you missed Chuck’s version of “The Tango”:
