Randy Blake

As the nickname suggests, Randy ‘Boom Boom’ Blake is a knockout artist who makes a habit of leaving his opponents on the canvas. The native of Tulsa, Oklahoma fights in GLORY’s light-heavyweight division and is notable for combining speed with power, particularly when it comes to kicking.    Blake took up martial arts following a childhood viewing of the Jean-Claude Van Damme movie ‘Bloodsport’.  He says he has seen the movie “probably a thousand times” since he first came across it as a seven year old boy. Following his first viewing he took to kicking things around the house so his parents enrolled him in a karate school.   Blake has never looked back; karate led to kickboxing and a career which has seen him win major world titles and pass through organizations such as Chuck Norris’ World Combat League. Now he has the chance to test himself against the best kickboxers in the world.
