Finale....
Tano Matsudy managed to escape and return to London where he continued to bill himself as a "champion of jiu-jitsu", but "jiu-jitsu" itself didn't get off as easily. Thanks to Tano's rather feeble showing, along with an earlier defeat by Ernest Regnier at the hands of wrestling champ Ivan Poddubny, the Japanese martial art had experienced a serious set back in the eyes of the French public. Its superiority to Western martial arts was no longer a foregone conclusion.
