Lots of purple and perhaps Kaki is rocking the sleek purple for a reason because he really outshines Takada here. This had that pesky youngster vs. pissy veteran dynamic, which I love, and it created some rather memorable moments. Almost immediately, Sano bitch slaps Takada and Takada seemingly lays down on the mat out of fear for Kaki’s unpredictability. Loved Kaki’s arm-trap necklock to force Takada to the ropes. When Kaki grabs an ankle and twists, Takada loses his cool and doubles down on the kicks, hacking Kaki’s leg to spaghetti and taking him down again and again. Kaki’s last gasp is great, as he catches Takada’s kick, barrages him with slaps, suplexes him to the mat, and then squeezes out an unfortunately positioned armbar. His big “oooh ahhh” moment before Takada promptly chokes him out. Pretty sweet sub-10:00 match.
