Jeff Langton

[AlbertV]

A former boxer and black belt in various martial arts, Jeff Langton was known in the 1990s B-movie circuit for his menacing villain roles. Two films in particular where fans will recognize him are College Kickboxers (Trained to Fight), where he played the final opponent Gary Carlisle (in an uncredited role) and PM Entertainment's Final Impact, where he played kickboxing champion Jake Gerrard, who was the one responsible for destroying the life and career of Lorenzo Lamas' washed-up ex-champ turned trainer Nick Taylor. He also was Jean-Claude Van Damme's first opponent in the street fights of Lionheart. Langton was the first ever member of Ernie Reyes' West Coast Demo Team and he is credited with introducing the acrobatics and gymnastics that would become the team's trademark. 

One of his first jobs in the industry was Sylvester Stallone's double in Cobra but he would mainly do bit parts and the aforementioned villain roles. During and post-acting career, Langton would work as a boxing trainer, cutman, and open his own gym for aspiring champions in both martial arts and boxing.
