Who else has watched the demo?
He hasn't done it at the world championships since 1999 and 2001 at the European championships.
By the way the music has been especially composed and performed by Japanese star Tsuyoshi Nagabuchi who's a huge singer and also a Kyokushin practitioner. He had made a song for the Japanese version of THE EXPENDABLES.
I hope we'll get photos and videos soon.

Yeah. Wow!
Dolph looks to be in SUPERB shape. He hasen't looked this good with his shirt of in like a decade. Massive!
The ice-breaking is just so badass. I don't praticularly care for these exhibition-staged-fights but anyway. Dolph is king.

The thing I admire the most is to keep the discpline in terms of diet and exercise for so long.

By the way I was browsing Brian Fitkin's book, in which young champion Hans Lundgren appears, and was reminded that he could break bricks (or wood boards you can't really tell on the b&w pics) in a headbutt!
(or bricks on his partner's abdomen with a baseball bat without hurting him)

TV report from a training session in a Bulgarian club, I believe that was the rehearsal for the demonstration in Tokyo (thanks Dragonrage!)
