And, you know, we got the same in judo when people go head-to-head and it's an open match. And I often talk about an open match. I say it's an open match. They're both trying to score.

I think that judo-wise, he's got to be one of the greatest because he had such versatility. He had... uh, he could go right and he could go left. He could pick up, he could go to the ground as well. He won a lot of his earlier matches on the ground. Um, I think his, uh, Empathy, you know, and how he presents himself sometimes, he falls down.

Yeah, I think it's how you present yourself afterwards, how you are with people, how much you can help people. I mean, people, kids, they look up to these great champions because they want to be like them.
