Workmanlike match. 安 藤 武 尊 was long. Ono wrestles low and compact in his stance.
ONO
- Thread starter pish69
- Start date
He looked like he hurt his wrist on one exchange in the first period when he was up 4-0. But like the great Taylor Swift, he seemed to be able to shake it off.
One of my medical assistant’s sons are BFFs with Jordan. She knows he’s kind of a badass but thinks it’s amusing when I tell her he’s basically the NLWC MVP.
Yeah--All one day--it's morning there. Ono's quarter is match 24--they're running 21 now (the numbers are all for Mat A)
Wow, Flo and UWW should take notes--we get to see the ref view of video replay as he watches it. Japan perfected the toilet, and also apparently a crystal clear, free stream with production value where it ads something.
Ono worked the right hand underhook for a step out, then just bulldozed for another step out. Finished a single on the edge for 2 then a left handed ankle pick for TD and 2 laces to win 10-0

Hayato Fujita I'm actually updating my ASCII Bracket, for some reason. lol.
On the UWW site it says Fujita was silver at the 2018 cadet worlds. He also won bronze at the 2018 youth Olympic Games where he lost to none other than Robbie Howard!

7-0 at the break and a massive takedown for 4 to finish it off 11-0 tech.
Finals (match 56 on mat A, so a ways away) vs. the winner of this current match between Kento Yumiya and Akito Mukaida (Yumiya I red, and up 3-2, pending a video review)
Edit - 2024 Senior Asian 57kg Champ Yumiya wins 8-5 and gets Ono in the Finals

Just posted the result in my post above--it there were like 3 video challenges, all won in that bout. Otherwise a fun match, but Yumiya took it 805.
I couldn't agree more. He has a lethal combination of great technique, speed, explosiveness, strength and a great stance/defense. His explosiveness will be beneficial in folk as it will lead to quick finishes, thus avoiding those folk style scrambles. I foresee great folk style success for him.
@nerfstate Thank you so much for letting us know this event was happening and all of the work you put into the brackets, translations, and pbp. I really appreciate it. It’s been way too long since we got to see Ono on the mat so this was a fun surprise
Perfect storm for me of being in the same boat about wanting to see him compete, and having a little bit of free time, and a penchant to geek out on technical challenges, lol.
I think the final is bout 56, so 6 more. The 2 Bronzes for 61kg should be next.
For the record, numbering bouts by order on each mat is genius. I wish we did that in the USA.

Yeah. Saw the bout number (51) after I sent it - meaning 4 more before King Ono
Let's hope Flo didn't send an intern to help them with the stream--Mat A appears to be offline.
The other 2 mats appear to be behind--on bouts 48 and 49 when the finals start on each mat at 55. They're probably just holding the finals on Mat A until the others are set to start. I'm waning my dudes. Haven't been up past 2 in a looong time.
