>>6221139Yeah but i'm not a work rate smark. Inoki is still more important to puroresu than Misawa, and I find him more charismatic and interesting. Misawa (and kings road style) for sure raised the bar on what level of violence and head dropping moves were acceptable, but Inoki paved the way for MMA and was a cultural phenomenon. Here he is before the Ali fight in the jungle, where he decided to swim across a river knowing crocodiles were in it.
