CWF was lucky to have Mitsu Yoshida working their rings in 1975 for several months. He was specifically sent by New Japan to Florida to train under Hiro Matsuda. Below is his CWF record as near complete as I believe is possible (Clawmaster, please add anything else you may have). Did he work any other territories in the US? I'm having no luck finding anything else. Mitsu Yoshida (Riki Choshu) CWF Results & Listings 1/14/75 Ft. Myers Mitsu Yoshida drew Gene Lewis 1/21/75 Ft. Myers Hiro Matsuda-Mitsu Yoshida def.
