Breakin’ star Adolfo “Shabba-Doo” Gutierrez Quiñones has passed away. He was 65.
The news erupted on Twitter as several hip hop aficionados started sharing tributes that the breakdancing impresario, who gained fame in the 1980s, had died.
Quiñones appeared in films, including
Breakin’ (1984),
Lambada (1990) and TV series
Miami Vice (1985) and
Married with Children (1990).
Born and raised in Chicago, Illinois, Quiñones was widely recognized as one of the forefathers of hip-hop dancing. After a move to California in the 1970s, he became a part of the L.A. based dance crew The Lockers. Toni Basil, who had the 1981 hit “Mickey (You’re So Fine)” was a member of the group. She confirmed Quiñones passing on her Facebook page on Wednesday. Basil wrote: “It is with extreme sadness. The Lockers family announces the unexpected passing of our beloved Adolfo Shabba-doo Quinones.”
The world of mixed martial arts was forever changed back in 1993 when the UFC held its first event, UFC 1, in Denver. There, such fighters as Royce Gracie and Ken Shamrock competed in a tournament unlike anything the world had seen. It only seems fitting that Joe Guerrero was born that same year and would eventually come to train out of the very site where MMA was reborn.
Guerrero was born to be a competitor. Starting at the ripe old age of four, he took up wrestling and continued all the way through high school under the guidance of his father and coach.
