A fun little build to the backdrop but nothing too exciting in the only singles match between these two legends. A slower start, with Jumbo cheap shotting Fuchi against the ropes. Fuchi gives Jumbo a taste of his own medicine with some low kicks to the knees, smartly retreating before Jumbo can retaliate. Fuchi continues to counter Jumbo's backdrop attempts with submissions, working him on the mat. I like when Fuchi keeps grabbing Jumbo's arm to prevent him from using a rope break. For awhile, Jumbo wears down Fuchi with abdominal stretches and sleeper holds. When Jumbo finally hits the backdrop, he can't immediately capitalize and Fuchi kicks out at two. But Jumbo hits a second one and that's all she wrote. Great selling from both men, and fun build, but a simple and safe tournament match.
