	Der Nimbus der Unbesiegbarkeit ist zerstört - derStandard.at/Sport - Fussball, Formel1, Ski Alpin (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		Kosei Inoue ist 1,83 Meter hoch und knapp 100 Kilogramm schwer und pflegt den sanften Weg zu gehen, also nachzugeben ohne zu zerbrechen, wie sich Judo aus dem Japanischen ins Deutsche übersetzen lässt.
		Van der Geest, der Inoues Nimbus der Unbesiegbarkeit zerstörte, verlor übrigens seinen nächsten Kampf.
		Inoue ist japanischer Volksheld und ledig, zieht sich, wenn er nicht gerade sportelt, Kinofilme rein und er geht gern auf Shoppingtour.

		Suzuki threw Inoue on one occasion with left ko-soto-gari, and was unlucky not to score, Inoue managed to get his right hand to the mat and landed on his side.
		Tamura, by capturing her sixth consecutive world title, proved that she is still nowhere near retirement and won most of her bouts by ippon with a scintillating display of fast attacking judo, relying mostly on tai-otoshi, ippon seioi-nage and osoto-gari.
		Kosei Inoue won his bouts with ease; no-one seemed to trouble him.

	ABC Olympics - 01/10/00 : Inoue grabs Japan's fourth Olympic judo gold
		World light heavyweight champion Kosei Inoue dumped Canadian veteran Nicolas Gill with a classic leg throw to grab Japan's fourth judo gold medal of the Sydney Games.
		Inoue, who had won all four previous matches by knockout "ippon", and Gill sized up each other cautiously in the first two minutes of the five-minute under-100kg final before both were penalised for inaction.
		The Olympic gold added to Inoue's 1998 Asian Games gold medal and his title from this year's prestigious Paris tournament.

	Judo Forum (JudoForum.com) > Kosei Inoue vs. Rickson Gracie possible (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		Kosei will be able to throw Rickson at will, and I have no doubt he will be able to renraku into groundwork when he chooses.
		Inoue won't have a gi to grip so it won't be nearly as easy trying to throw someone who knows how to close the distance like Rickson Gracie without a gi.
		Kosei Inoue however is not your average judoka.

		Inoue threw down Frenchman Ghislain Lemaire with a spectacular hip throw less than two minutes into the under-100 kilogram final as the hometown crowd chanted, "Kosei, Kosei.
		Inoue stretched his unbeaten record in the world championships and the Olympics to 21 straight wins, 19 of them by ippon mostly through his favourite uchimata, or the inside thigh throw.

		An ippon from Inoue will mean almost certain victory for Asia and a place in the final of the Millenium Cup for his continent.
		Inoue attempts the drop Seoi-nage but he has no grip and Kovacs tears after him, throwing the right arm and launching three Uchi-mata attacks in rapid succession.
		Kosei Inoue returns to the mat, apparently unphased by his earlier defeat, to take on Sadek Khalgui (TUN) and produces a stunning right Ko-soto-gari into right Harai-goshi combination that has the crowd in raptures.

		Inoue, the three-time world champion, was dumped by Elco van Der Geest in the quarterfinals when the unfancied Dutchman, leading on points from two incomplete throws, struck with a seoinage with 12 seconds to go.
		The loss was a huge blow to the 312-strong Japanese Olympic squad, as 26-year-old Inoue served as their captain.

	kosei inoue - Judo Forum (JudoForum.com)
		inoue is obviously the best in the wolrd at -100 and +100 kilos so, is he the best period and if so do you think he is the best that ever walked in judo?
		inoue may not be the best ever but hell the guy only 23/24 years old won his 1st olympics at 20! for being -100 kilo and being that young is saying something.
		I mean there has been so many exelent judoka in the past 120 years that it would be impossible to pick the best, i mean there's kimura, yamashita, the other yamashita(the tenth dan) say what you want about him but he was supposedly a vicious fighter.

		Judo means "the gentle way" in Japanese, but there's nothing gentle about Kosei Inoue as he grapples with a teammate at an Olympic training camp near Nagano in Japan.
		Inoue, who is the captain of Japan's Olympic team, and Ryoko Tani—a ruthless martial-arts master who wears pink hair-ties—will lead the way.
		On the opposite end of the emotional spectrum is the low-key Inoue, a perfectionist whose pre-tournament ritual consists of cleaning his room until it is as spotless as his fighting record.

	Champion's reign ends with a whimper - Judo -
		Japan's Kosei Inoue, reigning Olympic champion and three-time world champion, has been almost untouchable since bursting onto the scene in 1999.
		But he had a day to forget on Thursday as he was unceremoniously bundled out of the competition at the quarter-final stage and then beaten again in the repechage.
		Inoue, 26, was frustrated and eventually thrown for ippon by Elco van der Geest of the Netherlands in the quarter-final.

		Upon returning from Hungary I had to go to Osaka immediately, for Kosei Inoue, my best friend, was competing in the World Judo Championships in Osaka.
		Kosei, on one hand is very particular about winning the competition, but he is also very enthusiastic about pursuing the art of Judo itself.
		He won all competitions with “Ippon” the Judo’s equivalent of KO in the boxing or foul in the wrestling.

		Mori (105 kg.), somewhat taller than Inoue, was able to escape from Inoue’s initial O-uchi-gari and Uchimata and indeed countered one of Inoue’s Uchimata attacks for Wazari; nonetheless, Inoue kept cool, continued to pressure Mori and eventually threw him with a brilliant Morote-seoi-nage.
		Suzuki (100 kg.) never really troubled Inoue and mid way through the contest, Inoue unleashed a powerful Uchimata that sent Suzuki down for Ippon - a well deserved victory for Inoue.
		However, today’s achievement will no doubt restore Inoue’s confidence and refocus his attention on the upcoming World Championships to be held in Osaka, on 11-14 September.

		Still, Inoue professes to care less about medals than what he calls "ultimate judo." "I believe from now on I have to do judo as only Kosei Inoue can," he says.
		I hope we haven't seen the last of inoue as an international competitor.
		On the other hand I think he would be offered employment on the basis of his Judo career to date - just like the best sportspeople are in most countries.

		And in a fitting tribute to his late mother, Inoue held a picture of her above his head as he stood on the podium with his shinny gold medal around his neck.
		He fared much better this time and almost made it to the second half of the fight, but still the outcome was identical and this time he was probably lifted even higher off the mat.
		In fact Inoue lifted him so far off his feet that he almost over-rotated the throw by the time Gill crashed down into the mat.
