Seriously, how do you justify a stoppage that fast?
I was talking to a guy well versed in JMMA at Invicta 33 (he’s lived in Japan and visits quite often). I thought Rizin was trying to prop up Watanabe, whereas he argued it makes more sense for them to build up Sugiyama, as her husband is in the UFC, she’s the more attractive, etc. well, I think the fight result and ultra fast stoppage swings the argument in my favor. What say you?
