The martial arts event “Super RIZIN” was held at Saitama Super Arena on September 25th. The match between Floyd Mayweather (45) and Mirai Asakura (30) has been a hot topic since before the event. The match ended in a TKO win for Mayweather. However, on this day, an “incident” occurred that attracted more public attention than the match between the two.

At the bouquet presentation ceremony before the match, Takushi Okuno (48), the representative of the “burdock party” who served as a presenter, threw it on the ring without giving it to Mayweather. Afterwards, Mr. Okuno told a sports newspaper, “I just responded to impoliteness with impoliteness.”

Who is Mr. Okuno, who is currently receiving criticism from all over Japan? During the House of Councilors election in July this year, Mr. Okuno responded to an interview with a small magazine.

Yamapi uploaded a meaningful “burdock photo”

The Burdock Party, which Mr. Okuno is the leader of, was a new force that attracted attention in the House of Councilors election, along with the suffrage party.

One of the reasons it attracted attention was the endorsement of many celebrities.

“On June 8th, actors Takayuki Yamada and Tomohisa Yamashita, vocalist Taka of the popular band ONE OK ROCK, and popular YouTuber Hikaru all posted on SNS a letter suggesting their support for the Gobou Party. Mirai Asakura was also appointed as an advisor.” (Entertainment Desk)

Tomohisa Yamashita posted a picture of burdock root on his Twitter saying, “burdock root gives off a good flavor, isn’t it?”
