Billy Chau (Chow) is a former kickboxing champion (trained by my father,
Frank Lee), whose lethal kicks made his famous in Hong Kong cinema. He rose through the ranks to become the villian of choice for nearly a decade. Some of his work as the main heavy include
Pedicab Driver, where he takes out Sammo Hung in a knock down drag out, and
Miracles, where he fights Jackie Chan in a rope factory with JC stuntmen backing him up. My personal fave is Jet Li's redux of Fists of Fury,
Fist of Legend.
I grew up watching him train and fight and hadn't seen him for years, but was fortunate enough to spend some time catching up with him while rolling some tape on my father last summer. I recently stumbled onto this
great interview with him, broken into four parts, on youtube. The film star and former world champion kickboxer splits his time between Edmonton and Hong Kong, where he runs his own
gym.
Two posts. One day.
Craziness.
Here are a few ways to avoid work or distract you from getting your taxes together. Cheers.
