MASTER RICHARD “BEASTMODE” BASKIN
Every revolution begins with a visionary.
Master Richard Baskin is a 6th Degree Kickboxing Black Belt, 6–0 undefeated MMA Champion, and elite striking coach with over 30 years of real-world combat experience.
A lifelong student of martial arts, he has dedicated his life to understanding what actually works in combat, not theory, not tradition, not rigid style, but principles that hold up under pressure.
Fighter University is the culmination of that pursuit.
A LINEAGE OF REAL COMBAT KNOWLEDGE
True mastery isn’t invented overnight.
It’s passed down, tested, refined, and evolved through generations of fighters who lived it.
Master Richard Baskin’s training lineage traces directly back to Bruce Lee - the pioneer who revolutionised martial arts by rejecting limitation, breaking style boundaries, and focusing only on what works in real combat.
This isn’t borrowed theory.
It’s inherited knowledge.

MASTER RICHARD BASKIN
Systemisation and future-facing delivery
MASTER RICHARD BASKIN
Each generation pressure-tested the system, expanded its scope, and refined it for real fighting - not demonstrations, not tradition, not fantasy.
This lineage represents:
Functional, pressure-tested striking
Cross-disciplinary thinking
Freedom of expression over rigid style
Evolution over outdated tradition
Fighter University is the modern continuation of that philosophy refined for today’s fighters, delivered through today’s technology, and built for the future of combat.
A LIFETIME DEDICATED TO MASTERY
From the discipline of Karate to the rhythm of Boxing, the power of Kickboxing, the flow of Muay Thai, and the adaptability of MMA, Master Richard has trained relentlessly across all major striking disciplines.
Rather than treating styles as isolated systems, he focused on what connects them; timing, distance, movement, decision-making, and control under pressure.
Over decades of training, coaching, and competition, those insights were refined into a single, unified system.
That system is Fighter University.
PROVEN IN THE REAL WORLD
Master Richard is not just a theorist - he is a proven competitor and coach.
As the founder of the legendary Fuzion Kickboxing Academy, he has built fighters from the ground up, producing over 250 Black Belt students and shaping countless athletes into confident, capable competitors.
His academy stands as living proof of the system:
Precise, Intelligent, Adaptable, and Effective.
Through his globally recognised Punchbagpro platform, Master Richard has shared over 1,000+ detailed training videos, helping fighters across every continent sharpen their striking, expand their fight IQ, and elevate their performance.
WHY FIGHTER UNIVERSITY EXISTS
After decades of training with elite fighters around the world, one truth became clear:
Traditional training is slow.
Fragmented.
Outdated.
Fighter University was built to change that.
It exists to:
Shorten the learning curve
Remove guesswork
Unite all striking styles into one intelligent system
Give fighters access to elite-level knowledge; anywhere, anytime
This is not a personality brand.
It’s a system designed to outlive the individual.
Master Richard Baskin’s mission is simple:
To redefine striking forever.
By creating the most advanced,
unified combat system on Earth,
built for every fighter
and designed a decade ahead of its time.
He teaches those who are ready to learn faster, think deeper, and evolve beyond traditional limits.
