Kaito Ishida vs. Parker Boudreaux

[8.0] "Kaito Ishida vs. Parker Boudreaux - 8.0: This was not the match I was expecting and I think it benefits from that. Boudreaux comes in battered from his title match, tries to steamroll Ishida and Ishida's having none of that. Boudreaux is really great at making you think submissions are going to end him and Ishida is great as a little prick just chopping away at the big man. There's a couple great big moves and the finish is great. We need more of this Parker Boudreaux."

[6.0] "Puhh...Parker wins; seriously? Poor Kaito. The finish was nice though. Kaitos kicks were brutal af and the match was ok. ***1/4"

[5.0] "This was a generic 'your turn/my turn' in structure match, and again Boudreaux was selling his opponent's offense like crazy, like he wanted to prove somebody something. Few bursts of energy of his were pretty good, but obviously tangible improvement doesn't happen overnight. I expected worse going in, but again Boudreaux's performance was decent enough. I'm curious about what's next for Ishida though, because I don't think this is was he envisioned when he came to GLEAT."
