The King of Strong Style
Shinsuka Nakamura is nicknamed The King of Strong Style, known for his shoot style of fighting that means realistic wrestling approach, using an array of kicks, punches and moves one might see executed in MMA it is interesting to note that he is actually 3-1 in MMA, as many wrestlers from Japan do, many make the transition to MMA. What makes Nakamura’s career in MMA so interesting is that of his 3-1 record all fights ended by way of submission, his one loss coming from 5th degree BJJ Black Belt Daniel Gracie, with his other 3 wins all being by submission, submitting the 11-0 boxer Jan Nortje as well as submitting Alexey Ignashov, a K-1 Kickboxer who has victories over Badr Hari (KO), Peter Aerts (UD), Mike Bernardo (KO), Daniel Ghita (UD), Remy Bonjasky (UD) & Semmy Schilt (KO). The Kickboxer Nakamura beat was a very legit one indeed.
