Is Kotani the Japanese guy who came to the UFC with a killer record but then just kind of shuffled around with his hands at his hips while a guy punched him freely in the face? Was that Norman Parke vs Naoyuki Kotani? I remember a Japanese fighter doing that and it being hilarious, but I can't remember which one.

He expended too much energy and got tired

drat it Stann, Kotani looked the weaker of the two not the stronger, he was just crafty with a trip.

I want to see a Japanese guy win for once. Japan loves fighting sports so much.

Despite what that commercial says, I think Cain would easily beat Ronda in a fight.

That's pretty much every Japanese UFC fighter outside of Okami.

As always don't read the comments (which are mostly guys arguing that women are categorically lesser than men because Ronda couldn't throw a judo black belt who had 60+ pounds on her), but it's kind of funny to see her get super-pissed at him for sandbagging her. edit- obviously being somebody who isn't a moron I would have linked to the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9xjs2fWJEs Schenck v.

I was trying to think of japanese fighters who I had at least seen win outside of Japan and looked up Sexyama on wikipedia: quote:A fourth-generation Japanese of Korean descent, he acquired Japanese nationality in 2001. I'm trying to wrap my head around it.

Being born in Japan and being fourth generation and not having nationality until 2001 was the odd thing to me. I admit I don't know much about the guy outside of seeing a few of his fights, so maybe he lived in Korea all that time, I don't know.

He might be wrapping his head around the concept of being a fourth-generation resident of Japan but not having citizenship until you went through a legal process. ghetto edit: as I thought There are a handful of legit Japanese fighters. Okami is obvious. Sakuraba fought almost entirely in Japan AFAIK but he was the real deal. I would also say Gomi is/was pretty good but by the time he was fighting in the UFC he was past his prime and the sport had passed him by. Mizugaki seems legit as well, to the extent of being a middle-of-the-pack bantamweight, not amazing. e: oh yeah I forgot Horiguchi. also Mizuki Inoue

I was born in Germany but wasn't a citizen there because my parents weren't so maybe it works the same way in Japan.
