From the World Champion Ultimate Fighter Ben Rothwell 
"Michael Lee Jackson was one of the greatest martial artists of all time. He never got the exposure he deserved—until now."

From Tom Hall, US & European Super Heavyweight Champion*
"In the 1970s, I had the honor of competing with and later training with some of the most outstanding martial artists of that day. The story is coming from those early years of the sport in America that could fill many books beyond this one. But here is a story that needs to be particularly remembered, the story of a young martial artist, and a friend, whose journey was cut short."

"This story serves as a reminder of what the world could be, and as such it reminds us all to cherish the gifts we have and to work to preserve them however we can. Michael Lee Jackson was a young man respected by those of us in the arts, because of his size, but also because of his talent and ability. His loss was our loss. He was loved by many of friends, and it is a dear friend who wants him to be remembered."
