Prime suzuki was small
I guess we are talking weight here ?
 
Kondo, Okami, TK,
Machida if that counts

Here is me sparring tons of JMMA guys all Champs including Kondo, Okami , Ken, Sexyama etc.

Have other footage rolling w Gomi and tons of other JMMA fighters you guys might like my channel rolling at different gyms in Tokyo

Also sparred Machida a lot, and rolled with TK a few times, and trained with Saku two weeks but no footage of those


Also Ken just had a pretty epic One MW Title shot

I've always liked Team Lakay as well if we give some Filipino love

Kondo similarly. ..also there's a Japanese guy whose name escapes me from around that time who'd wear tighty tight red speedo's (not Minowaman)?

Okami is the most succesful big asian in America, and he has been so in a more evolved sport than his fellow countrymen from the 90's, including Saku.
He is highly respected by the pro fighters community in America, Japan and the rest of the world.
There is even one poster in this thread, @DanTheWolfman.com , who has experience training with elite fighters and has posted videos of him training in Wajutsu Keisukai of Tokyo (best gym for large men in Japan with Okami, Dong Kim, Akiyama, etc). He says that Okami beat everyone in there.

Yet you, a sherbro with no fighting experience whatosever laugh at those mentioning Okami. You are the fucking bum, mate.

I will never understand why someone post in an internet forum if has no idea of what he is talking about, nor has any intention of discussing.
And you have thousands of posts that must be in this way...get a life, mate

lol Okami a bum? wtf
I have Saku at the top as well but I recognize it would be hard for him to get any offense going against Okami in a fight
