Kotaro Yabu / Published in 2025 (small B6 size)

New (Shueisha Shinsho) Shueisha / What is a professional, what is a show, what is a serious match? This is the origin of mixed martial arts battles!

In March 1921, despite the Kodokan's attempt to stop Jigoro Kano, a judoka and the American powerhouse pro wrestler faced off on the grounds of Yasukuni Shrine.
The series of events that came to an end after the match when Kano disciplined his disciples is known as the 'Santel Incident.'
This book first traces back to the popularity of mixed martial arts in the United States in the early 20th century, clarifying why it led to the 'Santel Incident.'
At the same time, it was an attempt to reconsider the significance of this historic match, which later became the starting point for MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) in Antonio Inoki and a major trend in mixed martial arts competition.
