DId you know the best martial artist was Korean Born Lived in Japan?

Question

Who was he, Nick name was all what they called him was (Fighter in the Wind) I know do you. This is something for you martial artist fans go and do your research let me know

Answer 1

Oyama was good but to call him the best martial artist is simply a matter of opinion.  Why would you even make such a comment?

Answer 2

Bae-dal my great greats knew of him they did say this men was true not like what some Japanese say only because a korean born kicked there ***,

Another thing is does any1 here know that Japan was a Korean land, its like Australia own by England and later colonised to Australia as we know now today.

Same as all Asian countrys they all came from china and then later colonised to what ever they wanted to become.

Answer 3

Mas Oyama

Answer 4

I don't know how old you are or how long you've been involved in the martial art world, but Mas Oyama is a household name to every enthusiast of Budo over the age of 50 (like me).

Answer 5

Big Dog beat me to it not the first time. I researched Mas Oyama he had dual citizenship with South Korea and Japan

Answer 6

Is this what you were looking for?

Masutatsu Oyama (大山倍達 Ōyama Masutatsu), also known as Mas Oyama, was a karate master who founded Kyokushinkai, arguably the first and most influential style of full contact karate. He was born Choi Yeong-eui (최영의; 崔永宜), but preferred to be called Choi Bae-dal (최배달; 崔倍達)[2] to indicate his Korean ethnicity

Answer 7

Big Dog gets 10 points. As for him being the best I don't agree, even though he was excellent. Can you say he was the best when what he taught was developed by other people, just adapted by him? Too many variables to ever truly pick a best Martial Artist.
