Genki Sudo, the Japanese K-1 Champion and Ninja Warrior Actor, was given a Rolex Oyster Perpetual GMT Master for his 30th birthday by his father. In his Suki MMA online blog, Genki Sudo wrote: “The item I choose is a Rolex watch. I went to see my parents and told them about buying it. My dad said, you did great in your 20’s and I will pay for it.” Although MMA fighters are reputed to be as tough and brutish as their chosen sport, Sudo revealed true class in his choice of such a fine Rolex watch, living up to his nickname of the Neo-Samurai.
The all stainless steel Rolex Oyster Perpetual GMT Master has a very attractive black dial with red and blue bezel and neatly contrasting red GMT hand. The bezel is the popular black and red combination. The watch is bi directional and ratchet operated with an automatic movement featuring the hack mechanism (second hand stops when crown is pulled out to set the time – a standard feature on all genuine Rolexes). Moreover, Genki Sudo’s birthday present has luminescent hour markings and hands, a sapphire crystal, and is completely water resistant. Indeed, it is the sign of a truly proud Japanese father when his son receives a Rolex for his birthday. Like Rolex, Genki Sudo has done well and excelled in his chosen field.
Without question, Genki Sudo’s father has every reason to be proud of his son, the Neo-Samurai. When his son enters the ring or the cage, he carries a flag that proclaims amid a tapestry of the flags of the world: “We Are All One”. Sudo’s signature moves are the spinning triangle and the flying backfist. Sudo has fought in three UFC events and won twice. The question is whether he will return to the UFC wearing his new Rolex Oyster Perpetual GMT Master and take on the UFC Middleweight Champion Anderson Silva. If Silva and UFC Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar are not already wearing Rolex watches, when are they going to honor their belts and wear the watch that has stood for and continues to stand for the very best in the world? Of course, another intriguing question is what kind of Rolex these two great Champions would choose for themselves?
