-->''"Right- originally, I have an illness, when I was 10 years old, I was told I have IDDM, an illness called insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, and my body became weak. And my hopes and dreams kind of disappeared. And there is no known cause. And then I became a middle school student, and I was really weak, and I started to think that I should do some physical training. When I thought that, at the time I was a huge Bruce Lee fan, so I thought I should do karate. And then in high school, I was able to compete in tournaments and I won, and they showed it in the newspaper- so I thought if I could make a name for myself through this, couldn’t I send a message to the other kids suffering from the same illness? So, I really wanted to go into fighting. So, I thought about what was the most really hardcore sport that existed at the time. There’s swimming, and baseball, and basketball, all kinds of sports, but I thought it would really be the greatest if it were fighting. And then, I was doing karate, and I went to a bookstore, and I opened a magazine and it said that Sayama Satoru-san’s Shooting gym had opened, and I thought “Wow, this is something.” I mean, MMA didn’t exist at that time, so I thought “I should do this.” And that’s how it happened."''
