who do you think were or are the best fighters. they don't have to be well rounded just good at what they did, preferably a list

The amateur shoots his hands out ferociously, but lacks any true power. A master is not so flamboyant, but his touch is as heavy as a mountain.

The best fighters probably aren't famous, so no one would know their names.

 

If the stories are true, Musashi is about the best fighter I've heard about (especially when it comes to duels).

shotokan karate nidan

jujitsu shodan

kendo shodan

miyamoto musashi by far is the best.....and if you haven't had the chance to read his book of five rings, it is a must for all martial artist that are looking to take their skills and knowledge to a new level

sano, natural, wado-lee... umm... no. there are no clips of Miyamoto Musashi at work. He lived and died before even cameras were developed, let alone film.

no prob. ;)

 

The 'Kensai,' Shinmen Musashi No Kami Fujiwara No Genshin (aka: Miyamoto Musashi), arguably the greatest samurai in history, wrote the book, "Go Rin No Sho" which translates to mean, "A Book of Five Rings." It is required reading in kendo schools and most military academies, as well as recommended reading for business majors. "A Book of Five Rings" is not merely a thesis on strategy, it is in Musashi's words "a guide for those who want to learn strategy."

Here is a copy of his book online - http://www.samurai.com/5rings/

 

Patrick also presents a good list of books to purchase online, one of them being "The Book of Five Rings" - http://www.karateforums.com/books.php
