Mr. Hisaharu Tanabe, I owe you a beer or some thing you are awesome thanks. I am here at camp Zama so, if you shoot by this way let me know if you need anything.

[Hisaharu Tanabe]

Thanks, but Japan seems to be kinda far from New York...

a bit off topic but Hisa-san could you enlighten me on Kazushi Sakuraba's training? I remember someone saying he was trained at the snakepit but i'm not sure, could you clear some things up about his past please? thanks.

I am going to his school this week I will ask Mr Bill Robinson about SAKU

Not meaning to change subjects (or countries for that matter ) but what happened to the original snakepit in Wigan? Across the pond from the U.S. and half a world away from Japan

[john lehmann]

Well I know about the school in Wigan and I think that Bill Robinson wanted to make his mark in Japan, because most americans and british would rather sit on the couch and drink beer. Catch wrestling is coming back from his efforts here and some of the effort I guess in the states. I will get back to you about why Mr. Robinson called it the snake pit.

Hi John, I'm coming over to Japan at the end of March to watch a couple of NHB Events. I would love to train with Billy Robinson while over there. Could you send me some information about the training? Training Times, Costs, etc. Here is my email address - pjmarshall@hotmail.com. Regards Peter
