Between 1985 and 1997 I had competed in 23 professional boxing matches. My record stood at 18 wins (11 KOs), 4 loses and 1 draw. Many people would say my track record at the time was not a big deal, but I won the IBF cruiserweight title which was enough to grant me a place in history. Being the second kick-boxer to become a world champion launched my career into superstardom. In September 7, 1991 in Salemi (Italy) I had a chance to fight James Pritchard, the fight ender on a knock out for the win in my favor and proceeded to claim the IBF crown. I proceeded to defend my title against Donnell Wingfield (5th round TKO) and Johnny Nelson (unanimous decision), before the IBF title win, I won against Nate Miller to become NABF cruiserweight champion. In kickboxing I won the WKA world title, ending in 1992 with a lost to legendary Don Wilson in Tokyo. In 1984, I was named the best fighter in the world by Paul Maslak’s Star System and four years later I was rated number one among heavyweights in PKO rankings.

[dropcap color=red cap=W]orld Champion shootfighter Bart Vale is one of the pioneers of mixed martial arts in the United States. Vale began his training in the 70’s with the Al Tracy’s Kenpo Karate organization in Miami Florida. His current rank is 7th degree black belt.
After competing as a kickboxer, Vale trained in grappling and freestyle fighting under Masami Soranaka and Yoshiaki Fujiwara of the Japan-based Universal Wrestling Federation.
Vale coined the term “shootfighting” to describe this new mixed martial arts style that combined kickboxing with shooting (to rush in and take down your opponent), or legitimate wrestling. He also co-founded the International Shootfighting Association to help promote the sport.
Vale was one of the first foreigners to compete in Japan, in doing so he became the First American to win a World shootfighting Championship in 1992. Vale has also competed in kickboxing and no-holds-barred matches in Japan, the United States and Russia.
In addition to being featured in numerous martial arts publications, Bart Vale is also one of the few martial artists to have stories appear in Sports Illustrated Magazine, Men’s Fitness, and Muscle & Fitness magazines.
