genki sudo was a ****ing freakishly talented athlete and an amazing fighter. aoki is not. he would probably still destroy aoki with ease if he came out of retirement.
Yeah, except Sudo was nowhere near as powerful a striker as Sakurai was, standing or on the ground. And don't give me that K-1 ****. He was unorthodox and at times effective on the feet, but he was no top striker. He made his living as a great submission artist. I love Sudo, but I'd give Aoki the advantage on the ground. Would be an interesting matchup.
Can anyone direct me to some defining fights for Sudo? I would like to know what we are talking about, he sounds like a legend the way people are talking about him
here he goes for a flying triangle a bunch of times and tunes a bunch of people grappling [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIUWH-tuGGk[/ame]
If you like Shinya, you're going to luuurrvve Genki. Genki Sudo was similar to Aoki, except competent on his feet, fun to watch, better grappling pants, better hair style, more entertaining, not a little ***** and overall better than him at pretty much everything, including being a human being.
