“JFH: Justice-For-Hire” Comic Book Action Choreographer
Fights in Beijing Olympics Trial Sport

The mixed martial arts sport of San Shou - which combines American Boxing,
Chinese Kickboxing, and Mongolian Wrestling – has struggled for years to
gain mainstream acceptance despite a large international following and the
long-time support of MMA fighting icons such as Cung Le. Now, the sport
has been given its greatest opportunity for exposure yet – the 2008 Summer
Olympics in Beijing. Although not officially a part of the Olympic games,
China, as the hosting country, has chosen San Shou as the official trial
sport with hopes of it being formally initiated into the Olympics.

After fighting on the US San Shou Team for his fourth consecutive term,
Maximillion C. J. Chen – Max Chen for short – one of the top San Shou
competitors in the US and son of the living treasure of China, Tai Chi
Chuan master William C. C. Chen, earned one of two spots to represent the
United States in this historic international event. The first of Max’s
bouts begin today.

As a tribute to Max’s already grand accomplishment, his teammates at the
Martial Arts Creative Team (M.A.C.T.), the action design group that
choreographs both the comic book and live action sequences for the
critically acclaimed “JFH: justice-For-Hire” comic books and films, have
put together a video for Max on their newly launched YouTube Channel to
encourage him throughout his fights in Beijing. The channel will also
display regularly updated episodic content of live action side-storylines
that supplement the larger story arc of the “JFH” comic book universe, in
which Max plays the role of the character “Sudden K.O.”. The video is
available at: www.YouTube.com/Justice-For-Hire.

The entire first season of the “JFH: Justice-For-Hire” comic book series
is now available in stores and online. For more information, please visit
"www.Justice-For-Hire.com" and "www.WilliamCCChen.com".
