Standard Biographical Story,
Rezension bezieht sich auf: Mas Oyama: The Legend, the Legacy (Taschenbuch)
I ordered this book with much excitement and was a little disappionted when I finished it. The book does have some strengths. I finished it in a little over an hour (174 pages) because it reads very easily. The sentences are constructed for quick reading. The book, although a nice read, is better suited for teenagers than adults. The author repeats the same information in chapter after cahpter. He mentions the same extraordinary feats accomplished by Oyama over and over again. After awhile it grows a little tiresome. There are good points , however, that make this a must book for the library of any serious karateka.Reading about the perseverance of Oyama in his karate training, establishing his dojo headquarters called Honbu, and philospohy on thruth brings a better understanding about this legend. The chapter on the martial arts saying "osu" is also very good and it is in this chapter that the author Michael Lorden does his best work. This chapter alone makes the book a must purchase.

The Story of Godhand,
Von Jeffrey Shimizu (Curitiba, Brazil) - Alle meine Rezensionen ansehen
Rezension bezieht sich auf: Mas Oyama: The Legend, the Legacy (Taschenbuch)
What we have here is the story of Sosai Masutatsu Oyama, founder of Kyokushinkai Karate. I bet just about every Martial Artist has heard about him, his feats, and also the hypes. Not only for the Kyokushinkai fan (myself included), this is a pleasant book to read, not falling into the too-much-details trap, even for those not familiar with Martial Arts terminology. With almost 180 pages, it covers the 100-man fighting, the beginning, the spirit of "Osu", Bushido, the challenges, the champions, and everything you NEED to know about this man, who was called "Godhand". Definitely the stuff legends are made of...

Basic facts on the greatest fighter of all time,
Rezension bezieht sich auf: Mas Oyama: The Legend, the Legacy (Taschenbuch)
I would guess that Mas Oyama was the toughest fighter in history. I strongly doubt that Bruce Lee could have stood up to him. Oyama was just so much bigger and stronger, and had even more fighting experience than Bruce Lee had. Further, Bruce Lee didn't have the judo background that Oyama had, being a high level black belt in the art. Oyama won a major tournament in karate, then toured America taking on and defeating all comers including top legitimate wrestlers. The only people I think would have had a chance against him might have been members of the legendary Gracie family of Brazil. Oyama fought bulls in hand to hand combat, and apparently had a record of 46-1 against them, judging by this book. Since we revere our sports heroes, it is definitely worthwhile to have a thorough biography of the greatest fighter who ever lived. This isn't it. Right subject, wrong author. What we have here is a lightweight biography and a pretty good overview of Oyama on a superficial level. I learned that the rumor that Oyama mashed his two big knuckles together to form one super knuckle is probably incorrect, since he seems to have regular knuckles and this rumor isn't mentioned in the book. I learned that the main thing that distinguishes his kyokushinkai from other karate styles is the toughness of it, notably the practice of allowing (demanding) full contact sparring with no protective equipment, though apparently no punches were allowed to the face, judging from printed tournament rules. I learned of the 100-fight challenge, having a karate master take on 100 consecutive opponents. Obviously the goal isn't to decisively beat them all, but rather to survive the ordeal, though in Oyama's case he did it on three consecutive days and most certainly went 300-0. This book gives you some basic facts about the greatest fighter who ever lived, but it isn't a great biography or anything close. It just fills you in a bit, and was written by someone who knows.
