Hailing from New Brunswick, Canada, Theriault cut through opponents in a nearly twenty-year campaign where he accrued 61 knockouts in 69 victories. And if the 88% knockout rate didn’t already make it clear, Theriault was an incredibly dominant force of 80s and 90s kickboxing. He fought the who’s who of the Full-Contact era including names like Rick Rufus, Don “The Dragon” Wilson, Rob Kaman, and the eventual K-1 champion, Ernesto Hoost. And, while he didn’t leave the sport undefeated, he went unbeaten for over a decade (1980-91) and held the PKA Full-Contact Middleweight world title for a record 15 years. But, Theriault wasn’t just your typical knockout artist. He was inspired by classic boxing battles like Ali-Frazier, thinking, “How much more awesome would it be if they were kicking, too?” And it was from that seed of inspiration that he blazed a trail, pushing kickboxing forward in a time that seemed hampered by a now-outdated ruleset.
