Biography
Yukio Sakaguchi is a Japanese actor, mixed martial artist, professional wrestler, and judoka born on July 26, 1973. Son of former judoka and professional wrestling legend Seiji Sakaguchi, he followed his father into combat performance, competing across DDT Pro-Wrestling, All Japan Pro Wrestling, DREAM, Pancrase, Shooto, and other major promotions. His wrestling resume includes one KO-D Openweight Championship, two KO-D Tag Team Championships, and nine KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Championships.
Sakaguchi expanded into film and television, notably appearing in Kamui Gaiden (2009), a box office hit in Japan and the Netherlands. He was later cast in a supporting role for the Ninja Assassin sequel, though the project entered development hell and never released. On television, he co-starred with his younger brother Kenji Sakaguchi in Ikebukuro West Gate Park (2000 debut) and made regular appearances on Saigo Kara Nibanme no Koi starting in 2012, plus the film Face. In October 2012, he signed a multi-fight deal with Pancrase, followed by a 2013 re-signing with DDT. His victory in the 2015 King of DDT tournament marked a peak competitive moment.
A Leo born in late July, Sakaguchi's life-path number 8 aligns with ambition and dual mastery—he has pursued both athletic dominance and creative work in entertainment. As an actor, he performs in scripted roles across film and television. His Japanese citizenship and family wrestling legacy position him within a tradition of Japanese combat-sport crossover.
