Work in a convenience store.” Hideki “Shrek” Sekine, a former police officer and martial arts fighter, tweeted, “It’s important to support the suspect as a friend, but first and foremost we should support the feelings of the victim.”

Also, there’s this view on kickboxing skill.

“I won the championship and won all 13 matches so far, but looking at the details, I only won 2 times by KO, and the rest were all decisions. There was a question mark attached to ‘true ability.’

However, the martial arts world could not ignore the influence of Okamoto, who published a photo book and was frequently exposed to the media. I started playing bigger and bigger events.

Consequently, due to his influence, he has given the entire martial arts world a negative image…” (Martial arts journalist)

There are no signs that comments from athletes and officials about Okamoto’s arrest will subside, and the commotion continues to simmer. Ironically, this may be a result of the martial arts world relying too heavily on influencers.
