From: MMA.tv

"Dutch Muay Thai legend and Golden Glory coach Ramon Dekkers has passed away, at the age of 43.

Dekkers was reportedly riding his bike in his hometown of Breda, The Netherlands, when he began to feel light headed, and then collapsed. Attempts to revive him by onlookers and then emergency services were unsuccessful.

Dekkers enjoyed a legendary career in Muay Thai, and last fought in 2006. His one foray into MMA, a fight taken on short notice vs. Genki Sudo in 2005, was not successful."

This truely saddens me, dude was tough as hell, and inspiration. He will truely be missed.

He was indeed a legend, when I used to practice Muay Thai back in middle school I used to watch a video of his high lights with the song "til i collapse" by eminem playing and it would motivate me before I train in my room for about an hour.

He had lots of skills, perfect technique.
