With over nine years of professional fighting
under his belt, Hallman is most inspired by, “The thrill of
competition.” Not just anybody can live up to the nickname
“Superman”; Hallman fits the bill having built an excellent record of
37-11-2 in MMA competition. He holds the distinction of defeating
current UFC Welterweight Champion on two occasions. Hallman’s first
victory over Hughes took place at Extreme Challenge 17. “Superman”
defeated Matt in just 17 seconds with a guillotine choke. The two
would meet again at UFC 29 with similar results. Hallman took out
Hughes quickly once again, this time in 20 seconds with an armbar.
No, your math was correct, that is two victories over Matt Hughes in a
combined time of 37 seconds! Dennis is a self-proclaimed Master of
“Cowboy Karate” (Black Belt. 10th Dan). When asked about
his fighting style, Hallman remarked, “Cowboy Karate is a combination
of upper body Karate and lower body Karate. I meditate, I bow…there
are a lot of Black Belts that know what I’m talking about. My Karate
is strong. Karate is the way. |
