Frank "The Animal" Lobman (18 November 1953 – 10 June 2021)[1] was a Surinamese-Dutch kickboxer. He was a five-time European kickboxing champion and had an astonishing 90% knockout ratio. He beat many notable fighters over his career, such as Bas Rutten, Ken Shamrock, and British heavyweight kickboxing champion Steve Taberner. He fought in organizations such as Pancrase, P.K.A., W.K.A., and K-1.

Biography

Lobman was a prominent kickboxer in the 1980s to the early 1990s. He trained often in Crooswijk, Rotterdam where his brother Hedwig Lobman taught Kyokushin karate. Several kickboxing matches were given in the early 1980s with Lucien Carbin. In 1991 he beat Bas Rutten for a European kickboxing title. Lobman was undefeated until his first fight with Peter Aerts.

He announced his retirement fight in 2002 at the age of 49. His last fight was a 20-year rematch with Jan Oosterbaan in Ahoy-2H2H, but he lost the fight due to a decision.
