if this is the same...and it looks the same, the DVD is actually an interview insert from his PHOTO book....that costs about $16 + tax in Japan. The DVD is 10 minutes long.

In modern MMA competition, it’s a well known fact that the key to success is versatility and Yamamoto brings a scary set of skills to the table. A former Olympic gold medal hopeful for Japan, Yamamoto had to abandon his Olympic dreams after getting into some trouble with the Yakuza, I kid you not. Luckily for Yamamoto, Enson Inoue was able to save him from being permanently detached from any parts of his body. It was Inoue who saw the potential in the freakishly strong and talented wrestler and decided to introduce him to the world of MMA. It was like putting a fish in water as Yamamoto’s natural aggressiveness was in stark contrast to the passive nature of most pure wrestlers who enter MMA.
