I just found out that Jim Kelly died yesterday of cancer in San Diego.
Jim Kelly, best known for his role as Williams in Enter the Dragon, was a martial arts instructor before he started doing movies. He also had a successful career as a tennis pro after his film career.
I own some of his other movies, including Black Belt Jones and Black Samurai. Excellent martial artist, a much better actor than his B-Movie career gave him credit for, and from what I hear, a gentleman to his last breath.
