This came across as a bit of a blockbuster since Dieter had won the Hannover tournament in 1980 and Kauroff would go on to win it in '81. Kauroff was a Maurice Vachon looking wrestler who was a pretty decent grappler. There was an intensity to this that was missing from a lot of Dieter's other matches and although it ended in a draw (again) it was a compelling and worthwhile match-up. Probably Dieter's best match of the tournament.

To be reuploaded. I remember this being pretty fun. It had some sequences one normally wouldn't associate with European type wrestling and if I remember correctly Kauroff even did a Tiger Driver at one point.
