Dave Walsh was once the world’s foremost kickboxing journalist, if that makes much sense. He’s still trying to figure that one out.
The thing is, he always loved writing and fiction was always his first love. He wrote ‘Godslayer’ in hopes of leaving the world of combat sports behind, which, as you can guess, did not exactly work. That’s when a lifelong love of science fiction led him down a different path.
Now he writes science fiction novels about far-off worlds, weird technology and the same damned problems that humanity has always had, just with a different setting.
He does all of this while living in the high desert of Albuquerque and raising twin boys. He’s still not sure which is harder: watching friends get knocked out or raising boys.

Hey what are your thoughts on Tenshin getting crushed against TBE? I felt like he was too small, unprepared, and lacked strength to deal with floyd. Will we ever see the murderous tenshin we are used to seeing? Or will this set back tarnish him forever? Thanks for reading
You know, it was an exhibition in Japan.
The way those usually go is they look like a light sparring session, nobody really wins or loses, it just happens, everyone gets their hands raised and the audience got to see some cool moments.
This was so different. There was a lot of money in play and Floyd kept threatening to cancel. It wasn’t an actual fight and it wouldn’t shock me if Floyd held them up unless he could look good or win. That or he was told to go easy as it was an exhibition and just went into business for himself.
While Tenshin isn’t a pro boxer, he’s also not an idiot and probably wouldn’t leave himself open to those shots or um, get hurt in such an over-the-top way, ya know?
