Yeah I drink juice when I'm killing cause it's fucking delicious. In the major interview/series of Black Belt Magazine articles written by Massad F. Ayoob and published not long after Keehan/Dante’s death, it’s pretty obvious that Keehan/Dante was not only a pathological liar, a bully, abusing drugs and alcohol, and probably a criminal, but that he was likely mentally unhinged. It’s a shit show of incredible magnitude. To this day, there are people who claim to have “been there” or are otherwise somehow “in the know,”…but verifiable details are few to nonexistent. They argue endlessly about who’s real and who’s fake and which group is the real BDFS and who has the most valid claim to Keehan/Dante’s legacy and on and on and on.

While maybe Keehan/Dante was a charismatic tough guy who could scrap back in the day — there is at least one piece of video footage out there that shows him doing his “stuff,” but by today’s standards his “skills” are pretty sad — his greatest accomplishments were a comic book advertising campaign and creating a martial arts fraud template that would soon thereafter inspire fake martial artists like Frank Dux to even higher levels of chop-sock-fuckery.
