Yoshihiro Inoue, the main boss behind the Weekly Fight publication that debuted in 1967 (backed by Osaka Shimbun) and shut down a few months ago, died at the age of 72 on December 13th at 1 PM in Osaka. The publicly stated cause of death was stomach cancer. Inoue’s “children” (such as Tarzan Yamamoto, Katsuhiko Kanazawa, etc.) became big players in the pro-wrestling media business.
