The 122 division didn't existed back then nor the idea of catchweights. Also, it's same day weigh in. So this made rikiishi's weight cut even more painful.
I agree. He played the lead in Casshern and many quality movies. He's got a very distinct face and even at his age should for sure be the lead in so many more movies
@@lilyphilia3302 He's one of my favorite actors. Played Casshern, Rikishi, and Jotaro. Im sure theres another anime character hes played that Im missing
@@ovidiudante well he's a boxer not a bodybuilder, if he did is slow and nice he would not have those fast twitch muscle fibers, you have to do it fast for speed and muscle endurance
@@slavicapybara_7892 Maybe, but I haven't really heard of boxers training with dumbell curls anyway...I guess it's rather the fact that he was trying to lose weight, since weight lifting burns calories fast
@@slavicapybara_7892 exactly. Throwing a punch means using your biceps and back muscles to draw back your fist, and then using your chest and triceps to deliver the blow.
@@triplecrosscounter He does, the movie pretty much follows the anime. It's not your average live action based off on anime movie. It's a hell of an adaptation, in my opinion.
