Untitled[edit]

Query -- you state in the Ansei Ueshiro article: "... and for four years 1958-1962 he was world champion, and later retired uncontested from competition."

Query:

What was the sanctioning body for those World Champion titles?

Where were these World Championship events held during 1958 to 1962? -- country, city, local facility?

Who were the contestants? From what organizations and styles?

Whom did he defeat to claim his first World Champion title? And his subsequent World titles?

How many individual opponents did he face in combat to claim the title of World Champion?

Did he compete in any of the All-Japan Karate Association championship tournaments held in Tokyo, Japan during that same time frame?

Who were the other contestants that were included among -- say -- the top 5 finishers, during any of those stated years?

Who judged and refereed these World Champion events?

Were these World Championship contests physical-contact matches? Was body armor worn? Was grappling permitted?

Where are your authoritative source citations to support your statements?

There is said to be a letter issued and signed by Shoshin Nagamine in 1976 -- the now deceased founder of the Okinawan Shorin Ryu - Matsubayashi Ryu karate organization in Naha, Okinawa where Ansei Ueshiro had trained during the years 1958 to 1962, and during the decade immediately prior thereto -- that states such a World Champion title did not exist.

Please provide verifiable specifics and cites to back up and support your article statements. Thank you. / Mike H. Z. —Preceding unsigned comment added by MikeZer (talk • contribs) 16 August 2008
