In 1989 Don Wilson visited Berlin, Germany for the very first time and met Georg F. Brueckner, the father of European kickboxing and owner of TOP TEN sports. The photo on the left represents the first photo of WKA kickboxing world champion Don Wilson wearing Top Ten safety gear and pants. The image was taken shortly before Don fought for the PKO world title against German Ferdinand Mack, who at that time was WAKO's most famous and successful amateur kickboxer worldwide. The Dragon won this fight by TKO in round 9 after Mack, who was leading the fight by points, was hurt from solid body punches by his American-Asian opponent.
