RavishingRickRudo 0 Report post Posted May 8, 2005 YOWZA that was awesome. Ninja had some nice guard work and Gono had excellent positioning and ground control. I dunno if it was the editing, but that was a very active fight on the ground which I didn't really expect. I thought that last leg lock was it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lei Tong 0 Report post Posted May 8, 2005 The main parts that were edited out were some top control by Gono who couldn't really get any G&P going. I scored the fight for Gono 29-28, but in a fight like that a majority draw is fair. As for the kneebar attempt by Gono, he could've possibly finished it had he figure four'ed his legs, though Murlio is a tough guy to submit anyways. The fight was just before either of them hit their stride, as two months after Gono would make his Pancrase debut, and Murilo would be in PRIDE 4 months after that.
