[1977-05-21-Joint Promotions] Johnny Saint vs Kader Hossouni

[Edwin]

This is pretty great. Kader is from Morocco with a background in Greco-Roman Wrestling. Kader does a beautiful job of keeping up with Saint in the majority of grappling exchanges. He pulls off a great counter to Saint's stranglehold counter and a beautiful counter to a full nelson which leads into a face off. Saint usually gets a rep of being too exhibition-y, but I don't get that vibe from this match as the the majority of the exchanges seem gritty and the struggles are noticeable throughout the exchanges. Great match.
