No Holds Barred: Matthew Kaplowitz Goes to Japan
On this edition of No Holds Barred, host Eddie Goldman speaks with journalist, photographer, and web designer Matthew Kaplowitz. He is also a correspondent for this show.
Matthew recently visited Japan, and we spoke to him about that trip. We discussed the Sengoku 5 and Dream 6 mixed martial arts cards, which he covered, his visit to the world-famous Kodokan Judo Institute, and his trip to the Grabaka Gym, where he met its founder, the mixed martial arts and grappling master Sanae Kikuta.
He also will soon be launching soon a new web site called TheFightNerd.com.
