Saturday 26 July 2008
Bit late in posting these, but MMA-Weekend took a lot out of me... This was an awesome event, and I can't wait for the next one. In the Rookie Tournament Usuda advanced after this choke on Konno.
Mizuno and Tsuchiya had an excting fight, Mizuno takeing a majority decision.
This fight was a bit strange... Nezu was dominating Ochi, when Ochi got this choke in. Nezu was unable to shake it and Ochi advances in the rookie tournament.
"Mike" didnt improve on his record when he was stuck in this triangle. Luckily the ref was on top of it.
Yamazaki vs. Hirayama was a very good fight. Hirayama slamming Yamazaki here. But the 2007 Rooki Tournament winner, Yamazaki took a majority decision.
Even though Hirayama had some very good submission attempts.
Shinya Murofushi has improved on his feet and is still very dangerous on the ground. A good decision win for him.
Sasaki has the type of enterance you want to see in Japan. Shamizen music and a very traditional outfit.
"Wicky" Akiyo won his fight against the Finnish fighter Matteus Lahdesmaki. Here an example of his guard.
Shinya Aoki was cornering Togashi, in a JZ Calvan shirt...
Endo won the Pacific title fight against Togashi.
