Warrior of the Week: Dean Brougham

We don’t see enough fighters anymore. No, I’m not talking about MMA or Brazilian jujitsu or UFC or anything like that-I’m talking about actual fighting. The sporty kind that involves men wearing striped unitards and handlebar mustaches. Pugilism is honestly a lost art. No puts up their dukes anymore, and that’s sad, because you never know when you might need those special skills.
You know who didn’t forget the lost art of putting them up, putting them up? Dean Brougham. The man was out spear-fishing when a shark viciously attacked him. When the shark latched onto him, Brougham did some attacking of his own, punching it over and over in the mouth. He punched it so much that the shark let go of him and swam away.
That is easily the most bad-ass sentence that I’ve ever written in my life.
He lost no appendages in the battle. Brougham is currently recuperating with all signs pointing to a good recovery.
“I just started beating it, just trying to get rid of it, and then it let me go and then I was just straight towards the cliffs,” he said.
If I were him, I’d get that statement written on some business cards. Because sometimes the truth is awesome.
