Takayuki Kuboty i Mas Oyama przyjaźnili się i razem ćwiczyli. Mas Oyama wykorzystał zdjecie ręki Kuboty w swojej książce w celu pokazania róznicy między ręką karateki a ręką niećwiczącego człowieka.
to są fakty - a o walce nigdy nie słyszałem. Jako źródło podaje fragmenty dwóch wywiadów z soke Kubotą.

Fragment pierwszego wywiadu z http://www.karate.com.pl/en07.html

.....Back in Tokyo I was good friends, in my younger days, with Mas Oyama and the famous pro-wrestler Rikidozan. We used to train a lot on the makiwara. In fact, when Master Oyama published his first book, he decided to use my picture - but only my hand. He didn't want to use my face!.....



Fragment drugiego wywiadu z http://www.doshinmar...com/kubota.html

DOSHIN:

What was Oyama like?

Soke:

Mr. Oyama was as crazy about the martial arts as I was so we got along pretty well.

DOSHIN:

He used your hand in one of his books, I believe.

Soke:

Yes, We used to trade ideas on conditioning and hitting the makiwara and such. One day he tells me that he wants to use my hand in a karate book. I didn't know what to think but I agreed. So, in one of his Kyokushinkai books, there is a picture of my hand as an example.
