Untitled

Too much of the text of this article appears to be lifted from: http://www.bjj.org/interviews/kimura/. I've rewritten some of it, but it could use some more by whoever's willing and able to do so. Cla68

Holy Copyright Infringement, Batman! Looks like a pretty clear issue of directly copying the text from an outside web page and pasteing it directly to here. What's really sad is that the person didn't even bother to alter the rest of the article, which includes much of the information in the text that was stolen. Article doesn't need to be deleted, though. Just revert to the last version by Bobblewik. Problem solved. Tuckdogg 15:30, 19 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Temp page created from Bobblewik's last, just to be safe. Tuckdogg 16:12, 19 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Olympics

I was wondering why Kimura never competed at the Olympic games? Portillo (talk) 08:31, 19 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I would guess it's because they didn't have judo as an event until 1964, and he might not have been eligible by then because of his professional wrestling. He'd also be pretty old by that stage. 93.107.220.100 (talk) 09:19, 28 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Citation on Broken Gracie Bones

A citation is badly needed regarding the supposed breaking of Gracie's bones in that match. He was very flexible, a dislocation I do believe applies, but it IS WIDELY REPORTED ELSEWHERE that no bones were broken (due to Gracie's flexibility). Kimura stated they broke in an interview, but that's not evidence of a fact. The writer should look into this, since it is clearly stated on Gracie's wikipage that no bones were broken. What's the true story? It matters: it is a famous and very important match in Judo history, sport history even. Thanks for reading this! :-) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.123.97.125 (talk) 20:53, 3 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Was he in the Japanese military during WWII?

yes or no? 184.96.254.177 (talk) 10:38, 22 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
