    Bit of an underrated gem from 2004...I remember singing its praises a lot at the time, lacks a little rewatch value but a good scrap nonetheless.
    Parra was sort of my darkhorse at the time, was a bit of a fan..as I was with Sakata..
    He was quality slickster...not so much defensively schooled, more a natural..but he abandons a lot of this to slug it out at times with the dogged Sakata.
    When Parra is doing is thang it gets a bit thin on the action but Takefumi has him trouble a couple of times throughout the fight and he never stops walking Parra down.

    If you watch it for anything, watch it for the hilariously animated Japanese commentary.
