[1985-05-31-UWF] Yoshiaki Fujiwara vs Super Tiger

This was most evenly matched in terms of modifying offense and defense for combat. For Tiger, he obviously practiced his arm takedowns and holds in between matches, whereas Fujiwara’s plan is a simple one – catch a kick, trip the leg, and submit. Tiger doesn’t make it easy for him to pull off, as he’s able to counter the catch with a kick or a takedown of his own. Tiger comes at him harder, faster, repeatedly hacking at Fujiwara’s leg with strikes to prevent him from being able to stand on his own two feet. The punishment and perseverance on Fujiwara’s part pays off in the long run, as he’s finally able to catch the Tiger by the tail (or, in this case, the foot) and lock in the kneebar for the submission.
