If you notice his experience includes Judo, Karate, Ju-Jitsu and Western Boxing.

Roy was a streetfighter back in the day, and proved his Aikido worked constantly, by meeting challenges and beating people up who gave him crap.

I suggest the book "complete Aikido", which details everything he did, and why he is so great!

Suenaka Shihan is sort of a "living legend" here in Charleston. He and Church Shihan used to work together and do some in-house demonstrations with their students. Some of our (Kamishin Ryu) people have trained with Suenaka sensei and all tell of his amazing Aikido!!!
