Putin becomes eighth-degree karate black belt

That Vladimir Putin, he's a baaad man.
Putin, 62, has been awarded a karate black belt, the Russian Kyokushin-kan Karate-do Federation said Friday.
Putin in 2013 also received the highest rank in taekwondo, the ninth-dan ranking, giving him honorary grandmaster status.

(And doing better than the North Korean leader, Putin hit 20 holes-in-one in a recent golf game, while sky diving, without a parachute, from the International Space Station)
