superkix Posted May 28, 2018 Report Share Posted May 28, 2018 Sawa's final match in BattlARTS and a good showing from both guys, especially Suruga, who is usually solid but never blows me away. Sawa did some neat stuff on the mat early on, pissing Suruga off, who starts laying into him with kicks on the ground. Really stiff strikes from Suruga and some nice snug elbows from Sawa. Sawa will eat these strikes and just grin at the crowd -- it's really something. On the ground, Suruga focuses on the arm but then he'll throw a tiger suplex. Exhaustion plays into the finish as they're both lobbing tired shots. Sawa hits all his signatures toward the end and finishes off Suruga with the octopus hold to send the fans home happy. Really good, fun match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
