Kyuzo Mifune
Kyuzo Mifune has been categorized as one of the greatest exponents of the art of judo after the founder, Kan Jigor. He is considered by many to be the greatest judo technician ever, after Kan.
Mifune was born on April 21, 1883, in Kuji City, Iwate Prefecture, on Honsh Island in Japan, a year after the Kodokan was founded. He was reportedly incorrigible as a boy, always performing some mischief or organizing others in a similar pursuit. When Mifune wasyears old, his father, a strict disciplinarian who finally gave up on the youngest of his seven children, sent the boy to a junior high school at Sendai, in northern Japan. There, the young Mifune discovered judo, and decided to dedicate himself to it. At age 14, he defeated nine opponents in a row at one tournament with another high school.
