Update

I will release the John Pesek book in early to mid-September 2024.

I hope to complete the next book by December 2024.

I recommended the FightLore series on YouTube about early UFC history.

Main Content

We discuss Taro Miyake’s challenge matches in England to spread Jujitsu. Però, the challenge matches soon became a vital source of income.

Miyake could not generate enough income from martial arts instruction to support himself.

Revisió

We also spend considerable time reviewing Rikidozan’s double-cross of Masahiko Kimura in 1954. Part 1 i Part 2 of the videos are available on YouTube.
