Shungo Oyama (大山峻護 Shungo Oyama, born April 11, 1974) is a Japanese Mixed Martial Artist with a background in Judo and Sambo.
[edit] Career
Shungo Oyama has appeared in the KOTC, ROTR, Pride, and K-1 HERO'S organizations. And has a record of 7-10-0 as of 10/28/2007.
He is most known for being a student of Japanese Judo superstar Hidehiko Yoshida, and briefly trained with 3 time King of Pancrase Bas Rutten. Shungo has also trained at the famed Takada Dojo, run by former Pride General Director Nobuhiko Takada.
Though his record is not impressive, Shungo has gained respect for his die hard spirit, and stubbornness to submit. On more than one occasion he has been injured or choked unconscious due to his refusal to tap out. Shungo was also once thought to be one of Japan's most feared strikers, and was in the main event at PRIDE 22-Beasts From The East 2 against the late Ryan Gracie.
Shungo's biggest victory was over Renzo Gracie of the famed Gracie Jiu-Jitsu family. With a combination of his own unorthadox fighting style, and a little Kazushi Sakuraba imitation, Shungo was able to frustrate Gracie and dominate the fight to gain a unanimous decision. In the most controversial moment of the match, the normally upbeat and respectful Gracie spit in Shungo’s face; irritated by his fight antics.
