Nasukawa used that incredible highlight to stop Yusaku Nakamura in the first round of their featured kickboxing bout at today’s Rizin FF 10 event at Marine Messe Fukuoka in Japan.
If you need to understand the type of hype surrounding Nasukawa, just reference this quote from his opponent prior to the contest: “He’s an amazing kid,” Nakamura said. “He’s a really phenomenal kickboxer. I don’t even want to imagine what kind of fighter he will turn out to be in five years.”
You can talk about Nasukawa’s undefeated kickboxing record at 26-0. You can discuss his 100-plus amateur contests, and even reference his 4-0 record as a mixed martial artist.
But really, to understand the skill and creativity of the budding flyweight superstar, you must watch him at work. Don’t forget the name.
