Oyama fought 52 bulls in his lifetime. He broke the horns off of 48 of them and killed three of them. He did not kill the bulls with Karate. He wore them down and once weakened he killed them by twisting the necks, breaking them. This information comes from one of his first books on his style of Karate Kyokushin. Rumors have made it out that Oyama killed the bulls by punching them, but that is untrue as they were killed as I described.
As for him defeating 300 men, that is a new one to me. I think that has been made up. He certainly did not defeat 300 at one time or even 300 in a row. Check out the real facts before believing the myths that people start.

He didnt kill that many bulls, and a few of those bulls gored him quite badly.
All in all its how he trained and his attitude. He trained under two very excellent instructors which makes all the difference as well.
