Sonny Chiba is a strong character in his films of the Street Fighter series. When he was injured he build his courage and stood up to heal his self through training. He was tough and gave me positive thinking towards my own life and self confidence! Your "AWESOME" Sonny!! By Tommy Wolfe.
Thanks for your great comments Tommy! I'm glad to hear he's proved a positive role model for you, all the best martial artists do exactly that!
