superkix Posted January 25, 2018 Report Share Posted January 25, 2018 This was like good cop/bad cop. Peeters is the good cop (not really, because he’s kind of a dick himself…just not a Dick Vrij). He has this nervous energy about him when he’s trying to defend against Vrij’s strikes and he misses about 70% of everything he throws but that doesn’t stop him from trying with 100% effort. He keeps unloading on Dick with knees and his flamboyant kicks but lands few of them, and scores even fewer knockdowns. On the other side, you have bad cop Dick Vrij, who isn’t quite as dick-ish as he was in those Maeda matches, but he’s still as imposing and aggressive. One thing that I enjoy about Vrij is how responsive he is to Peeter’s offense, grabbing a foot off a kick or a hold off a takedown. At one point, he has Willie in a jujigatame and when Willie tries to shimmy out of it, Dick holds on with the reverse armbar. And, of course, he kicks really hard, lifting Willie off the mat at points. Sloppy and chaotic but fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makai Club #1 Posted June 7, 2019 Report Share Posted June 7, 2019 This was fantastic. Great striking, some lovely takedowns and throws. Great timing to get the crowd pumping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
