The kid had excellent form in his punch, from delivery to execution. I think Inoki saw and showed his respect to the kid with a just as excellent face smack to put some humility and courage into him
Wait so the kid was supposed to punch him? He didn't just do it out of the blue? Then why did Inoki slap him? Was that also part of the plan, or did the kid hit him harder than he was expecting?
I know that, but this incident was the origin of that right? the toukon binta didn't exist before this?
The story I heard gave me the impression that the kid hit him, and so inoki hit him back. But this looks like the kid was actually supposed to hit inoki. so why did inoki slap him for it?
In hindsight, it might have been due to the punch, even if it barely hurt Inoki, being impressively-executed for the a boy of his age. Inoki, impressed with the power and potential of the boy, gave him the Toukon Slap to encourage further improvement.
A lot of oldschool wrestlers like Inoki (especially him) have chips on their shoulders about people trying to "test" them and see if they're real tough guys.
Inoki was letting the kids hit him, but the one he slapped punched him harder than he was expecting. Inoki slapping him was sort of like saying "if you're going to hit me as hard as you can you should be able to take a rasslin slap in return."
Inoki was doing it to teach him a lesson, basically. All the other stuff came later.
no, it is well documented that a slap from inoki is a gesture of respect from him and those who are slapped from him are supposed to go on to become great fighters..

I think it would make for a cool story now that he's probably in his 30s. "Hey, you know the kid who got bitch slapped by Inoki? That was me!"

Inoki slapping someone is like a supreme gesture or something. That's why the kid hit him so hard.

A slap from Inoki is considered a great honor, supposed to encourage fighting spirit inside you.

@SuZuk1Z That was AFTER this incident, doofus. Inoki himself has said he did it because the kid hit him too hard
hypeman3000 1 year ago
Was this the punch's origin? If so, that kid caught on quick because he bowed immediately after getting slapped.
