The article says that Yamada studied "Koppo". I don't know of any martial art by that name, but the Koto Ryu teaches a style of jujutsu they call "koppojutsu". Did he study Koto Ryu? That would be very interesting, as koryu tend to be pretty selective. Gwalla | Talk 02:02, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Not completely sure really. I saw a shoot interview with him that used a live translator. He mentioned martial arts training and Koppo. He might have just ment that he learned learned some other Martial Art from which he learned his Koppo(u) kick from. I'll change it until we get some more data on this.

Ah. Then yeah, it was probably some other martial art. The "kopp&3333; kick" (which I believe means "bone-breaking kick") was probably named by him. Gwalla | Talk 19:49, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)
