He looks more like a hard stylist/kickboxer in "Murder at 1600" and "Passenger 57"(or whatever the number was) as well as in Blade to a degree. He did some stuff for a tv Martial Arts special around the time of the first Blade movie that featured alot of MA master class artists. Not surprisingly, they were predominately from NYC and predominately black - which fights one of SNIPES' goals of trying to create a black action hero and role models for black kids. I think it was/is a positive thing. My son LOVES the movies and SNIPES. Black, white or purple with pink pocka dots, I encourage my son to use SNIPES action roles as motivation and MA role model
He seems VERY athletic regardless of style because some of the FMA looking things were very fluid and dynamic.
