Weekly News Digest 産経オンライン英会話 ニュースディスカッション教材 Weekly News Digest 産経オンライン英会話 ニュースディスカッション教材 INTERVIEW | Naoya Inoue Pursues the ‘American Dream’ to Make Boxing Popular in Japan Unified WBA and IBF bantamweight world titleholder, Naoya Inoue, 26, has set his eyes on becoming the undisputed champion of all four of the major sanctioning organizations, including the WBC and WBO titles. This much he made clear in an exclusive interview with The Sankei Shimbun and JAPAN Forward in January at the Oohashi Gym in Yokohama City. Inoue spoke passionately about the secrets to his training methods, and said April's Casimero match in Las Vegas would be his first step to succeeding in his “American Dream.” Here are excerpts from the interview. How would you sum up 2019? It was the most intense year since my pro debut. In terms of my tournament results and my personal life, with my second child being born, I had my most fulfilling year. You fractured your orbital bone during the Donaire match. How's the recovery coming along? I've made a complete recovery. What are your plans for your 2020 matches? There's a timing and flow of things, so I think I'll be fighting whoever I can. Right now, I'm not thinking about moving up my weight class. I will continue to fight in the bantamweight class. You're going to be facing John Riel Casimero on April 25 in Las Vegas. Have you started preparing for the match? It'll be the same as how I would prepare for matches in Japan. First, I'll be in training camp in Japan. Then about a month before the match, I'll fly into Las Vegas, which will give me enough time to adjust to the environment. Are overseas matches different from those in Japan? There's the time difference. The weather is not the same. Las Vegas has especially dry weather, so I'm wondering how I'll do during the weight loss period. However, there's less distraction overseas, so I'm able to concentrate more. I felt that during my Glasgow match. How will you appeal to the U.S. audience? The majority of U.S. fans have a good understanding of boxing. I'm hoping to beat the opponent in a way that excites the American audience, with lightweight class speed and tactics.

Considering how things are flowing, that's what I'll be aiming for. When you are in a boxing ring overseas, are you more aware of your dreams and pride as a Japanese fighter? Or, on the contrary, do you feel more pressure? Right now, I feel as though I'm carrying all the weight on my shoulders. If I don't win a match of this level now, I think my future will be tough. If I'm able to put on a sensational match in Las Vegas, I believe boxing will become more popular in Japan. There is a dream to this profession, because there are no limits to the amount you can earn in boxing. Would you say that it's not easy to blaze a new path in the American ring as a Japanese boxer? To make it in the U.S. is one of my dreams, and it is what I'm aiming for. You don't appear to have a flamboyant lifestyle. Do you have no intention of flaunting your financial success? Even now, I don't take on fights according to the paycheck amount. I just don't like it when there are other strong boxers and great champions around. That's why I never ask for the amount of the prize prior to a match. Do you hope to change the social image of boxing in Japan? By sending out the message that I want to fight the greatest talent, and also want to aim for unified titles, it will eventually change the way other boxers see things. They may feel pressure, but I believe this is what real boxing is about. With the message I promote, I think boxers will continue to fight stronger opponents, as they're already leaning towards the unification of championship belts. I think this could slowly make boxing more popular in Japan. Will you continue to fight strong opponents as well as matches against designated contenders? I'm at a point where there are only strong opponents to fight. Depending on the organization, I may need to fight title matches. If I want to aim for the undisputed title, I feel it's necessary to do title matches as well.

Yes, I do. How does one become a great champion like yourself? I don't necessarily have strong skills. I think it's all about momentary inspirations and my thought-out daily training. I'm not making any brilliant moves. My style was established through fundamental daily training. So, is continuation of basic training the key? A huge difference can be seen in a person's year, with those who commit to a solid two- hour daily gym training program, versus those who approach it half-heartedly. This doesn't apply to boxing alone, but to everything. I'm very particular about this concept when it comes to my training. When I'm at the gym, I practice by imagining, not just one but several different opponents I would most likely fight. This allows me some versatility in my motivation. So, right now, you're visualizing Casimero? That's right. When I'm not training, I do nothing. I play games (laughs). When others are taking time off, I'm off. [Floyd] Mayweather once said that he trains while other people are sleeping. When others are sleeping, I'm sleeping (laughs). What is your daily schedule like? In the morning, I'll train for about an hour and a half, then, in the evening, I train for two to three hours at the Oohashi Gym. But other than that, I'm free. But even if I say that, you probably think I'm putting in hard work even when I'm away from training, right? (Laughs) I'm really not! Does that mean you have incredible concentration? Yeah, I think it's about focus. My father (Trainer Shingo Inoue) always tells me to keep focused. It angers him when I'm not. Naturally, I guess I've become accustomed to concentrating. Do you have any training methods or secrets on how to develop powerful punches? I can't throw hard punches unless everything, including my strongest style, punches, my lower body and shoulder movements, are all perfectly in accordance with one another. When training to build powerful punches, I use the punching bag thoroughly. That way, the skill develops naturally.

Normally, I don't. However, I do watch Lomachenko's. If there is a style I want to incorporate from other fighters, I'll watch their fights. Do you also watch their training footage? Yes, I watch their training footage. Because they train differently? No, that's not why. Training is the foundation. Only the basics are practiced in training. I watch their basic form, such as footwork and lower body movements. So if there are things that you can incorporate into your training, you'll watch them? Yes. Otherwise, I'm not interested. Who is the boxer you feel you can learn from the most now? Lomachenko and Oscar Valdez. A little while ago, I would watch Pacquiao and Mayweather's training. In your personal life, I hear you are quite an ikumen (dads who are actively involved in child rearing). I don't know if I'm an ikumen, but I will change diapers and take baths with my kids. The ikumen phenomenon is gaining momentum, but it's nothing special. Things are different now compared to 30 years ago. When I hear stories from my parents' generation, the men didn't participate — they were all about their work. I'm home a lot and I see how hard it can get for my wife, so naturally I help out.

  • JACK JOHNSON, MUHAMMAD All, and THE
    ABSTRACT HISTORY WOOD, AUGUSTUS C. B.A. MOREHOUSE COLLEGE, 2007 THE SIXTH FINGER: JACK JOHNSON, MUHAMMAD ALl, AND THE UNCONSCIOUS RACE HERO IN SPORTS Committee Chair: Richard A. Morton, Ph.D. Thesis dated December 2012 This study examines both the mentality of black race heroes in American sporting history and the surrounding atmospheric influences on personality, mentality, masculinity, and global perspective on said heroes, using the case studies of iconic boxers Jack Johnson and Muhammad Au as the primary focus. This study was based on the premise that both boxers initiated a conscious effort of racial pride, black agency, and global hegemony through their consistent success both inside and outside the ring. The researcher found that in almost blind adoration, African Americans chose two unconscious, self-righteous, and raceless blacks who utilized their gifted abilities as boxers to only capture full masculinity in the forms of wealth and power. In response to their considerable inferior treatment at the hands of the majority, blacks actively sought dominant representations of success and defiance of the norms to carry their dreams of black pride. However, both Jack Johnson and Muhammad Ali repeatedly rejected their anointed statuses of “race men” for the chance at true wealth and power in the commercialization and exploitation 1 of their masculinity. In addition, the background environments of both figures are essential to the true analysis of the mentality and perception of the boxers. The conclusions drawn from the finding suggest that both individuals rejected their hometown communities’ ideals of agency and activism and instead opted to embrace the more lucrative ideals of independence (Johnson and Galveston) and interdependence (Ali and Louisville).

  • Western Bushido: the American Invention of Asian Martial Arts
    WESTERN BUSHIDO: THE AMERICAN INVENTION OF ASIAN MARTIAL ARTS A Dissertation by JARED TYLER MIRACLE Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, Thomas A. Green Committee Members, D. Bruce Dickson J. Lawrence Mitchell Vaughn Bryant Head of Department, Cynthia Werner December 2014 Major Subject: Anthropology Copyright 2014 Jared Tyler Miracle ABSTRACT Prior to the Second World War, very few Americans were aware that martial arts existed outside of the Olympic institutions (e.g. boxing and wrestling) and it wasn’t until the 1960s and 1970s that Asian martial culture became mainstream in the English- speaking world. This changed when a group of dedicated, unorthodox Westerners applied themselves to the study and dissemination of East Asian martial arts, soon raising their popularity to its current level. This project explores the social and cultural process whereby the martial arts were imbued with a violent nationalist rhetoric in Japan before World War II and came to be a part of daily life in the United States in the decades that followed. Central ideas in this process are the creation of an imagined and exotic Asia and discourses of masculinity as they are negotiated within the larger framework of transforming American society. Source material for this contextual cultural analysis includes archival and interview data as well as popular publications, films, and other multimedia in addition to standard library research. By merging these three methods, it is possible to develop a well-rounded picture of trends in society over time and, in particular, how the folk history of any one group has influenced the broader zeitgeist.
