2023 All Japan Kudo Senior Championships ( SI 202 210) final

Because Kudo is what is called MMA, there are many fighters who are strong even though their belt grade at Daidojuku is still low, due to their rich experience in martial arts and combat sports prior to Kudo. There are many such examples, especially in the senior category. In this match, a 5th kyu fighter won against a 3rd dan fighter. Murano has 28 years of experience in Kyokushin Karate and of course, holds a black belt in it.
