Yuji Suzuki (鈴木 有二, Suzuki Yūji; 5 June 1949 – 2 June 2026), better known as Guts Ishimatsu (ガッツ 石松, Gattsu Ishimatsu) was a Japanese actor, comedian, tarento and professional boxer who competed in the Lightweight division from 1966 to 1978. He was a one-time former WBC Lightweight Champion and an OPBF Lightweight Champion.
As a boxer, he was known for his unpredictable style, sometimes marking completely unexpected victories, and often losing in extravagant fashion as well. He lost 14 of his 51 professional fights, a rather large number of losses for a world champion. Since retiring in the late 1970s, he had gained popularity as an entertainer.
