Hovedinnhold

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

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

Review

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