Superstar Sleeze Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 Akira Maeda vs Kazuo Yamazaki - UWF 10/22/84 They took a helluva long time to get going in this one. Just a lot of listless time on the mat in wristlocks. Everytime it looked like someone was going to make some in roads with some kicks they would grind it to a halt on the mat. There would be the occasional good snapmare or bridge by Yamazaki. Still, there was not much struggle. Maeda is too deliberate. He has no explosiveness to make this style work. Very little charisma from what I have seen. I liked Yamazaki from that one Hashimoto match. After about 15 minutes, they finally kick in the finish run which is a German by Yamazaki, missile dropkick then another German with a beautiful bridge, but too close to the ropes. Ab stretch, but once he goes for roll up, Maeda converts into a cross armbreaker. Meada hits a spinkick and then in a gnarly sitting neck crank, armbreaker submission wins match. Finish stretch was good, but too little too late. Just not a very interesting match as Maeda continues to disappoint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
