PBP RIZIN: Shiwasu no Cho Tsuwamono Matsuri ***Sherdog Discussion*** 12/31

[Bobby Boulders]

7:42PM in Japan? That's discouraging.

They're gonna have to end this one before the ball drop, there's no fucking way. I know they like trying to end it right at the same time but it just won't work, it will be their song and clips for 3 hours

both fighters landing cracking punches early. motoya seems like his nose is bothering him already.

How dare you underestimate how long they can push an intermission.

motoya surprisingly stifling ougikubo's takedowns quite easily. both guys continue to throw hands.

 

[Bobby Boulders]

Ougi looking good so far

 

[EndlessCritic]

just as motoya finds success with some jabs, ougikubo blasts him with an uppercut.

absolutely great round. motoya's face is wearing a lot more damage but both guys are landing.

 

[Killer Kadoogan]

damn ougis striking is on point tonight, looks way faster and accurate

 

[Bobby Boulders]

Motoya needs to keep throwing his jab

 

[DrRodentia]

18 decisions in a row is insane

 

[EndlessCritic]

motoya keeps shooting takedowns... not sure why he thinks he can get ougikubo down without hurting him.

motoya needs to focus on jabs and low kicks.

 

[DrRodentia]

This is actually a bit of a brawl

 

[EndlessCritic]

motoya doing his best work in the last minute of round 2, but all of the harder shots seem to be coming from ougikubo.

motoya needs a miracle to turn this around.

 

[EndlessCritic]

wow motoya with a takedown to start round 3! we have 4 minutes left. can he get something done?

 

[EndlessCritic]

motoya with shockingly effective shoulder strikes from the top of half guard as the ref is calling for action. damien brown voices his confusion as motoya is working.

 

[Bobby Boulders]

This is awesome. Like men

 

[EndlessCritic]

rock em sock em battle in the last two minutes, but all of the quality shots are coming from ougikubo. clear decision win for ougikubo.

 

[DrRodentia]

Fuck yeah. They went to war.

 

[Mick Dojang]

That was a fun finish, got to go out swanging on NYE

 

[MiroHa]

Great brawl at the end even if there wasn't really a sense of danger for either fighter

 

[Bobby Boulders]

Great fight. They've both been high level for a long time, they just couldn't quite win the big one. Ougi takes this, but good showing from both
