[10.0] "Made a great promotion in Los Angeles. With a background in martial arts in judo. Good as a wrestler. He was better as a promoter and an announcer. He has trained Roddy Piper and Ronda Rousey. If you grew up in Los Angeles and remember listening to LeBell he was one of the best announcers ever. He has also published many books on judo."
