Da Crazy Hawaiian is one of Power Slap’s true pioneers and a former Super Heavyweight Champion, winning the title at Power Slap 5 in October 2023 and defending it twice. Now ranked No. 3 at Light Heavyweight, he recently dropped two weight classes following a title fight in March and returns to a non-title, three-round bout for the first time since August 2023.

Coming off five straight title fights, this marks a reset moment for one of the sport’s most experienced competitors. He’s also part of a dominant fighting family, as the older brother of current Super Heavyweight Champion “Da Hawaiian Hitman.”

“I saw someone online and thought, ‘I can do it better.’ From that moment, I knew I’d be the greatest.”

A longtime believer in the sport, he was in contact with Power Slap leadership before it officially launched and has played a role in its early growth.

“It means everything. This is how I provide for my six kids.”

With championship pedigree, knockout power, and a goal of becoming the sport’s first Hall of Famer, “Da Crazy Hawaiian” continues to chase legacy in a new division.
