Inoki’s poem ‘The Road’ that Barnett carried
Josh Barnett on his Metamoris attire: “Even the towel I had (which had Inoki’s poem “The Road” on it in Kanji) is in respect to Inoki-san.”
Josh Barnett recently posted on the UG about his crushing defeat of Dean Lister at Metamoris 4 last Saturday. “The WarMaster” referenced a inspirational poem.
“The plain black trunks I wore, the robe, and the black boots are in homage to another one of my mentors: Antonio Inoki,” wrote Barnett. “Even the towel I had (Which had Inoki’s poem “The Road” on it in Kanji) is in respect to Inoki-san.”
This is the poem.
The Road
Don’t fear what happens if you keep going on this road,
With fear, there will be no road,
If you give one step, the step becomes a road,
Go on without fear , then you will find out…
A. Inoki
