Takata has a younger sister Toby as well.
He is now trying to adopt a more attacking style, likening it to the way a predator stalks his prey. He and coach Eddie Liddie work a lot on visualizing this persona on the mat.
State champion In 2000, while a student at Iolani High School, Takata won a state championship in wrestling. He also played soccer while growing up, and is a self-professed TV junkie, calling Discovery's "The Deadliest Catch" his favorite show.
