1 | 11.01.2022 | jboyaquar | 5.0 | Ungainly yet not the disaster another commentator attested to, the bout doesn't find much momentum until the final third that was fought at a pretty fast pace, certainly faster, if more-out-of-control than that of the much-praised Violent Giants/JIN matchup from approximately 10 days prior. I wonder if late-on, when Aoyagi appeared to front choke Suwama out, if S was in-reality loopy thus making watching A push the big-man out an awkward chore. All I know is that a minute later, S was pissed-off, ripping-off the outside mats, etc. Oddly their sequence didn't matter as KM pinned Shuji w/ a German even-though Shuji's left-shoulder was clearly off-the-canvas. Yea, I can't recommend this either. 2 2/3 |
