>>5750044>>5750097The story of this match is Inoki, who lost to Choshu the previous month, said he's now back to the drawing board and needed to have a fresh start,
>"I want to start from 1"he said. So he began to have matches with midcarders like Koshinaka, Hase and smalltime gaijins. Minoru who only debuted a year ago took the chance and challenged Inoki. He told him
>"Am I less than 1? Can't I be recognized as 1? I want to make you know that I'm not less than 1."Perhaps in part because of this statement, an unusual singles match was quickly arranged.
>"Once I get in the ring, it doesn't matter who is higher or lower. I will fight with the intention of winning."Inoki said. And as you saw, Minoru wasn't joking there. He was shoot striking Inoki and talked shit to him, saying
>"Get up you fucking old man"So of course, Inoki wanted to punish him. After he defeated him, Minoru said
>"I feel good today. That son of a bitch. I will become the real thing"So the next day, Minoru left NJPW and joined UWF after defeating Iizuka on the 16th.
He said in an interview that Inoki taught him to be menacing with his eyes when he leaves the ropes. This was the parting shot.
