Meet this man:
His name is Hisashi Teraji. In his prime he stood strong as a 6'4" Light Heavyweight Boxing Champion of the Oriental & Pacific region. In 1992 his lover gave birth to a baby boy whom they named "Kenshiro", after the manga character of the same name. Hisashi and his wife likely had high expectations for the young Kenshiro Teraji, they had every reason to believe that he too could grow into a big, tall, burly man much like his father and the fictional character which his parents named him after.
Flash forward 25 years, it is now October 2017. Kenshiro Teraji, who now goes exclusively by his ring name "Ken Shiro", has just defeated Ganigan Lopez and finally captured the dream that had elluded his father. He is a world champion! Only, Ken Shiro is not a 6'4" Light Heavyweight. No, far from it, he is 5'5", and the title he has captured is not the Boxing Light Heavyweight Championship of the world, but instead Boxing's Light Flyweight world championship.
The Teraji's may be fearsome boxers in their own right, but if there is one opponent they could not beat, it would be genetics.
