[1997-12-23-RINGS] Volk Han vs Mikhail Ilioukhine

[superkix]

A shame this ended the way it did with Han's knee injury as they were having themselves a good ole time. Han being Han! Slapping the cross heel hold early on and when Mikhail tries to counter with a heel hook, Han boots him off. Whipping him around by the wrist to set up the armbar. Mikhail focused a lot of his efforts around the armbar and got it off a few times but he does a fantastic job of selling Han's holds, which already look unpleasant. The flip counter to Han's standing armbar was cool and the final minutes of struggle between the two pre-Han's injury were very good. Still worth checking out.
