That is the one thing every last guy will say right after they tell you how tough Haku was, that he was the nicest sweetest man you would ever meet as long as you didn't piss them off
It's the difference between being a KILLER vs just a fighter. Haku would go to destroy you and kill you in a fight, most fighters just fight to say "hey look at me I'm tough." Killer instinct is rare. Like Mike Tyson or Manny Pacquiao Haku had it
I have seen people claiming that it's urban legend he's not that tough blah blah blah if it was just a few of his buddies trying to make him look good then I might agree. I don't doubt there's some exaggeration like he beat up seven guys when it was really 5 or 10 guys when it was 6 stuff like that, but it's not just a couple of his buddies saying how tough he is basically every last guy in the business at the time he was says the same thing so there's obviously something there. They didn't have a secret meeting where they all decided they were going to come out and lie about Haku being tougher than everybody else.
People say meng was tough. And I’m sure he was. But sometimes I look back on situations. You know? And like to measure facts. Growing up, I had a buddy I used to drink with in bars. I saw this guy take on the entire ridout tavern in London Ontario Canada and win one night. I also saw this guy take on the entire Bruno’s bar in east London Ontario and win likewise. For a 240 pound fella , he could move when he was stressed. I’ll tell ya that much. Doing somersaults with ease. Also On top of mall parking lot buildings Sliding down big huge round cement beams with the greatest of ease. Now I’m a bit of a monkey . I was on the same building he was that night. and I can climb pretty much anything if I can get my hands around it. And grip something. But how the hell did my buddy mike slide down a 40 foot high , 20 foot round in diameter mall parking lot cement beam ? With no place to grab onto the round beam for gripping or leverage to hold himself against this beam? Safely? But he did it. The guy also bench pressed 500 pounds with ease. O yes. And he beat up four fairly big dudes in a park once. Two with drop kicks. Then there was the time four guys jumped mike in a pool hall parking lot. Mike took their beatings they laid on him and then beat the fuck out of those four guys too another night. In his prime? I seriously wonder if anyone could beat mike. He was tough. With that same dude however , I walked 50 kilometres one day to a location where we camped out one night . And during the night we got into a fight and I knocked him out cold. So? It does make me think . Sometimes. Does it depend on who had their wheaties on a specific day? As to who wins fights? During physical combat? Don’t get me wrong. Mike was a nice guy. But he was dangerous in a fight. And despite that? I still beat him when I was alone with him in the middle of no where and he was trying to kill me . In a moment of rage. So? What’s that mean? I’ve watched meng for a long time. I also watched the physical feats of my buddy mike. In a real fight? I’m pretty sure if meng wasn’t careful? Mike would stand a chance at defeating meng. In physical combat. One on one. I’m just saying. Don’t underestimate this guy mike. I’m referring to. I saw mike do some things I’m not even sure meng could do in a million years? I’m just telling you the truth. This boy was strong. And yet despite all mikes amazing feats I saw him perform? For years? When I had to? I beat the guy handily. In a fight. So? I’m thinking it just depends on whose feeling up to a fight. On certain days. That’s what I feel. And it’s God given too. You know? I mean, come on, people? Sometimes people talk like meng could easily defeat Tibetan monks. Or Jesus. Or The Norse Gods Thor and Odin. Or the God allah. Or sometimes people boast that meng could easily defeat the arch angel micheal for example. Or sometimes people boast that meng could crush the fearful God of glory the God of Israel yah weh in a fight . People? Please? Really? I mean seriously? In a real fight? I’m pretty sure this guy mike I grew up with would stand a chance in defeating meng in a real fight. That’s for sure. But mike never disrespected gods. Mike wasn’t crazy. He knew his place as a mortal in this life. The more people talk? The more I get the impression people are trying to tell me meng would defeat mighty angels and gods in battles even. So? On thatnote ? I’m gonna write a little bit sarcastically here. Just for a moment. And say this. See the following match up folks. Step right up and get your tickets! Heavy weight match up For this evening. A rare fight coming your way. Meng takes on the God of Israel in one on one combat. Wonderous. For the heavy weight championship of the world. Aw yes. Just marvelous. “Let’s do battle now!” Shouts meng to the God of Israel jehovah! “”” arrrrrrrhhhhhhhh!” Shouts meng. Which then gets jehovahs attention. And the fight is on! Folks. O my yes. Meng is the odds on favourite to win this fight by the way. The odds makers are predicting meng will knockout The Fearful God of Israel yah weh in less then three rounds. Okay. How is that for a brief bout of sarcasm? attached to this subject? At this conjecture in time in human history? Hmmnnn? Meng is good. People. In physical combat. But is he better then God? Could meng truly knock out the great God of Israel in three rounds or less in physical combat? And then laugh about it? Or starting shrieking about it after wards? In physical combat on that note?don’t count your chicks before they hatch. On that one. Okay? People. Be rational. Don’t lose true perspective on who you truly are in this life. Be sane be rational. O yes. Exactly. Pure and simple.
I am starting to think that all these stories were either grossly exaggerated or completely fabricated. It's like these wrestlers are one upping each other as to who came come up with the tallest tale.

Madusa Macelli aka Alundra Blaze said Haku was the lightest she ever worked with. Yes she would be in the ring with men back then.

Mr Haku Meng ain't no joke!! If you've watched Wrestling for decades you'll know this.
The one thing I took away from all of this is you do not screw around with Haku .........
I guess they forgot Haku was trained and has experience in sumo wrestling.
and martial arts as well.
Search youtube for the video of Sumo tries to shoot on Haku
Yo Tonga started his career in Canada eh. Anyway Haku and Tama's kids are in the Bloodline
