@is_vipjudo: Who Was Masahiko Kimura? The Judo Legend: Born in Japan (1917–1993), Kimura achieved the rank of 7th dan in Judo. He famously lost only four matches in his entire career, prompting the legendary phrase, "Before Kimura, no Kimura; after Kimura, no Kimura." #Judo #judovip #judoka The Famous Submission: He is globally recognized for his 1951 submission victory over Hélio Gracie (the co-founder of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu) in Rio de Janeiro. Kimura won the match using a reverse ude-garami (arm entanglement). The Legacy: In honor of his victory and his mastery of the technique, that specific shoulder lock is universally referred to as the "Kimura lock" in modern Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) today.
