jesus christ nothing early about that stoppage. satoshi was completely out. his leg bent back like crocop/gonzaga.

 

[DrRodentia]

That was a sloppy takedown with no setup, but the speed that the read was made and that knee was thrown was crazy impressive.

 

[Kalmah]

That was a wicked knee, great timing.

 

[Bobby Boulders]

That knee would make Sagat proud

 

[Bobby Boulders]

Good luck holding us hostage until 12am local time now, RIZIN

Last minute KOTY contender. So many talented fighters out of Uzbekistan. That knee to counter the level change was Joachim Hansen-esque. Great technique and timing.

Good call back to Hansen. Wonder how he's doing these days. Was a beast in his time.

 

[SJP_SevenLaker]

He left nothing off that knee either. All heat straight to the face.

 

[Mick Dojang]

Shai-Hulud time

 

[Bobby Boulders]

Man, that knee was textbook. Really a beautiful KO

 

[Mick Dojang]

Schiavello and Damien slowly beginning to look like each other

 

[DrRodentia]

Damien Brown used to fight at 155 btw

 

[Bobby Boulders]

45k in Saitama. RIZIN doing well for themselves

Are you sure that's not the acid?

That counter knee was his trademark technique. He got a lot of wrestlers attempting level changes with it.

He was definitely a legit top LW in his prime. The LWs over in Japan during that time frame are kind of forgotten, at least among non-hardcores. Hansen, Kawajiri, Azeredo, Shaolin, Cavalcante, Aurelio, Ishida, even Mach to an extent, and he was a top P4P fighter at one point.

feel like this is the earliest a nye event has ever ended.

can asakura pull off the upset of the year?!

 

[DrRodentia]

They are scrambling to find a bunch of early 2000's Hip Hop and RnB to fluff this card out a little longer.

 

[Bobby Boulders]

Man, just realized Shaydullaev had called out Satoshi. That's no longer a thing, that sucks. That was gonna be interesting

 

[DrRodentia]

I'm almost in disbelief it's going to end this early. I still have a solid hour and a half in me, and expected to miss some.

Lets be honest, there's one one track they need to close this event out
