Kazuo Takahashi, ring name
Yoshiki Takahashi (born March 13, 1969 in Ichikawa, Chiba
) is a Japanese former mixed martial artist
. He has competed in many large MMA promotions, including the UFC, Pancrase
, and Pride Fighting Championships. Takahashi is best known for his incredible toughness, heart, and will to win. He has fought many top fighters in mixed martial arts, including Masakatsu Funaki
, Bas Rutten
, Igor Vovchanchyn
, Ken Shamrock
, Vitor Belfort
, and Josh Barnett
. His nicknames are "the Biting Yoshiki" and "the ugly man" .
, and he started in Pro Wrestling Fujiwara Gumi
in 1992 but joined Pancrase
the following year.
Takahashi is known for his incredible toughness and desire to win. In his second professional fight against Ken Shamrock
, Takahashi suffered a broken jaw from a strike and knee and ankle damage from a heel hook but refused to give up. Takahashi was limping badly for the rest of the bout but continued to fight. Eventually, he got caught in a very tight heel hook and could not escape and was forced to tap. Takahashi had to be carried out of the ring after the fight.
In another memorable showing of heart, Takahashi got caught in a heel hook against Bas Rutten
which inevitably broke his shin bone in half. Takahashi continued to fight until he delivered a leg kick to Rutten, completely snapping his shin bone in half. It would be a year and a half until Takahashi fought again.
In his most recent bout, Takahashi defeated Chang Seob Lee on October 30, 2010 at Sengoku 15 via first round Scarf hold armlock.
