Bonus Episode: MMA and Puroresu History w/ Michael Betz
Added 2023-02-21 11:00:04 +0000 UTCSimilar to yesterday's bonus episode but MUCH more extensive, as I talk about Pancrase, RINGS, and lots of topics pertaining to early MMA and its connection with Japanese pro wrestling.
The guest is a great one: Michael Betz of the peerless Kakutogi Road, which is surely the best combat sports history source on the internet! There is a WEALTH of combat sports footage and writing on there, going into so much depth I can't believe I don't hear more of you guys talking about it! If you can't find a fight from prior to 2005 on YouTube I can GUARANTEE it will be on there! Offering as comprehensive a library of kickboxing, Japanese pro wrestling and MMA from around the world as you will ever see, If you like Combat Chronicles I highly recommend you check out Kakutogi Road on Patreon as well
Hope you enjoy this bonus episode, and you will hear from Michael again in 'The Guide to Pride 1'

Hey Nate, I really appreciate this comment, thank you. I just have high standards for myself, and taking so long to complete this project has been a weight on me. So thanks for reaching out, means a lot. On the flipside, in this economy anyone parting with their hard-earned deserves to get what they’re promised!

If a project is taking a while, we believe it will be better for it so the delay is understandable. Don't be too hard on yourself, keep up the good work!
