I'm proud to call O-Sensei Bluming my Sensei but also my friend. He is one of the World's best and most unsung martial arts heroes; a combat veteran, a tough Judoka, a Karate Master Instructor, and one of the most likeable rogues I've ever had the good fortune to know. His students represent some of the World's Best All Around fighters; like Chris Dolman who is a legend as well. He is a Martial Arts pioneer and a man who speaks his mind. Two thumbs up for your interview!

[@Blueslicks321]

An honest...

[@superbongergo4662]

yeah and you can't see bitterness in him. Bluming wanted to be the owner of kyokushin but Oyama didnt' let him have it ofc. so he started hating oyama. and kurosaki was never there. he never saw the fight sure Bluming is great fighter but how ironic that he is the one lying here. all of oyama students have said that yes oyama did fight. many times alot of times. why lie? and how come he says all these things after oyama has passed? simple he was scared of him. could have told the truth earlier. and kurosaki also hated oyama because he is only fighter that lost to thai fighter. oyama was pretty disappointed. but how come there is news articles and documentations of oyamas fights. why would even Jack Dempsey wanting to meet Oyama? Bluming is great fighter but terrible liar. you can see it from a mile away if you can't notice somebody who is actually strong. change your life go do something instead of martial arts

Jon Bluming is such an inspiration, i wish i could have lessons by him

[@Houkie]

I did get lessons of him, thies stories you got bla bla and a little Judo. lol

[@obiepimentel1722]

People should read the book "Human face of Karate" by Tadashi Nakamura. In that book he mentions how Mas Oyama sent the Yakuza to kill him in NY.

[@nicksmith3746]

Why did Oyama want him killed?

[@ultimatetruth5254]

Yeah, Nakamura was one of his best students

[@prvtthd401]

@@nicksmith3746 I believe it had something to do with how Loek Hollander told lies about Jon Bluming and Oyama Believed him.

Fantastiche man! Ik ben geen martial arts liefhebber, maar kwam hem op het spoor via Westerling - begrafenis Westerling. Maar de paar clips die ik van hem zag spreken boekdelen. Overal geweest (met name bedoelende de oorlogs zones) en een no nonsense wijsheid. Tsjeu! EN hij kan zich makkelijk verstaanbaar maken in japans (of was het koreaans') , en dan toch een kneuterig amsterdams bruin gezellige woonkamer. Hollandse held !

[@JoeyvanTienen]

I never heard or read that Bluming and Geesink squashed their beef but I'm glad to hear it from the man himself!

The Interview puts to rest much of the Myth and exaggerations about Masters and the Art itself.

[@savvasperisanidis]

Dr. Ranjit Abraham absolutely ur spot on I’m a JKA shotokan 4 dan involved in karate since 1979 We also were told mythical bull crap about our famous instructors They did this to create big business Admittedly though, most kyokushin meatheads believe in the hype

[@minecraftkingest4116]

Bluming saying that Oyama didn't fight 300 men in 3 days is stupid cause he did but its taken out of context as the 300 men kumite he did was when he challenged multiple dojos as he said in an interview that when he challenged a dojo he fought 100 men in that dojo so he could've fought 3 dojos in 3 days

[@FreekyDeeky21]

I heard that Oyama thought highly of Bluming but at the same time they said that Bluming was causing trouble for Oyama so him telling these "stories" might be a case of sour grapes.

[@superbongergo4662]

Bluming wanted to rule kyokushinkai by himself. bluming was great fighter and oyama respected it but that was too much. so bluming started to hate oyama for it. how immature tbh. so he comes here and lies. fun fact Kurosaki wasn't there to see oyama fight that bull/ox. he was never there

[@cratus1978]

He has no reason to lie whatsoever, he acomplished it all. All who speak ill of the man are just jealous or somehow beaten in the past. Osu!

[@noworriestoday]

R.I.P Osu

[@David-yf5fo]

To Bluming's point, what is the measure of an animal to be considered a bull? Were Oyama's bulls like the the 1800 pounders seen in bull riding events at rodeos? Were they like the fighting bulls in spain? From what I know, they were unremarkable animals by today's standards that were destined to be slaughtered. Their value was clearly about meat products and nothing to do with siring or use in spectacles. How these animals performed and what Oyama actually did does not seem to be well documented. Consider that people can be seen doing all sorts of cute things with the young bulls in Pamplona, but no one with a any understanding of those animals will go anywhere near the mature ones with foul tempers without a well calculated retreat.

[@HvPman]

and all you can hear is "phep phep phep". oh this made me laugh! what a great man!

[@johndevries7122]

He was a good man.

[@iceman3660]

qui a un video de ses combats je n ai trouvé qu une parodie de combat le concernant

[@shinkioku]

Bluming était un grand maître, mais le ressentiment de ne pas être accepté comme un successeur possible de Oyama ou même comme le principal représentant européen, il n'a jamais pardonné. Pour cette raison, malheureusement il attaque toujours son maître et le kyokushin.

[@akhypecontadit]

[@TheCasper20011]

very good but brick dont hit back

[@minecraftkingest4116]

funny that Jon Bluming shits on Oyama about the bull fight even though has never seen it in the original video its shown that Oyama himself broke it loose by doing multiple shuto strikes and no he did not strike the horn off he ripped it off and also the bull wasn't scared it was very furious, Bluming speaks nothing but bullshit and in no way was Kenji Kurosaki afraid of Bluming as he had met a guy like Ichiro Haruyama who was basically like a real life Hanayama from Baki as described by Yasuhiko Oyama

I would love to have seen him in a contest with Trump.

Yes I also heard lung cancer. But if this realy was the cause it couldnt be the Yakuza

It was the lung cancer, most who have lung cancer could die at age 60 or 70 i mean Musashi Miyamoto also died to lung cancer at similiar age so its not a big suprise

you stupid? ofc lung cancer bruh. see that's what bluming does. rots your brains you imbeciles don't think for yourself. you think same way they tell you to think. fucking monkeys. also funny how Bluming says shit about Oyama after he has passed. i think he was terrified by Oyama

[@ttotter100]

I am guessing his memory is off, because there is old video footage and it's of a bull not an ox.... it's sad this guys is so degrading to the memory of perhaps the most influential Karate master of all time

[@minecraftkingest4116]

We must only trust Oyama about these stories cause most of the stories we have heard are not said by him but he did kill an bull or ox i don't remember and most of his stories are true ( Stories told by him )

[@superbongergo4662]

ik they are truly imbeciles who believe Blumings bitter lies. nobody sees the truth. like if Jack Dempsey respected Oyama. you just have to believe it. not like that is the reason i believe. i have seen alot of proof that supports all of Oyama stories

People are only afraid of your knowledge because of the way you use it. Without consideration. Egotistically. Why, why, why all this?

[@Rnt911]

+joopsnoop Why not? Why to keep believing in lies?

[@joopsnoop]

What lies? You mean lies John Bluming was told? How long did he train with Mas Oyama?

[@Rnt911]

joopsnoop Man, if you really believe Mas Oyama fought 300 man in three days, or real bulls, I'm sorry, but you're stupid. Mas Oyama himself said to Bluming that was only marketing to promote his style.

[@joopsnoop]

So what is your take on it all? He couldn't fight? He wasn't strong? Even the great Kimura of judo said in his autobiography that Oyama was the best fighter he had ever seen. The 300 I know happened. I have spoken to people who were his opponents on the day. The bulls, see the photos.

[@Rnt911]

joopsnoop Oh, come on. I'd rather believe in Bluming, he's an honest man, and what he says make a lot more sense. He never fought any bull, only small afraid oxes, have you seen the footage? The cowboys do it far better in rodeos. No, I don't believe in super human or that stuff, Oyama was a marketing man, if he really could fight at the level he said, don't you think he would film any of his bouts? The fight of Kimura vs Helio Gracie is from the time Oyama could fight, yet we have a lot of footage of Kimura and Helio in various fights, but not a single one from Oyama. If he did the kumite against 300 of his students, they took very easy on him, just for marketing purposes, but I don't believe it happened anyway.

at 6:11 ... is no wonder, this Oyama is a charlatan. True, I am no specialist, but I have seen a few of this Oyama fighting clips in young and old days, and the sloppiness is staggering.
