since i can no longer reply to the post "THERE IS NO SUCCESSOR TO SIJO EMPERADO "..I thought I'd post this here...... I was just wondering why and if Angel Garcia himself had his name added to the signatures of black belts proclaiming that "there is no official successor to Emperado".. as i recently noticed that joe and Luiz Diaz's instructional kajukenbo dvd says he is? Scroll below to read the description which is also on the box of the actual dvd..which I own.
EDIT: it was pointed out to me that the description on the dvd says Sijo passed at 92 when in fact he passed at 82 years of age
