@munk25 it wasnt mma,there were no head punches on the ground ut would have been worse for renzo.I think this tournament was legit but definitely earlier rings fights featured many,many worked bouts,i think it went real from this comp onward until it went bust.
The brazilian Jiu Jitsu guys cant handle the fact a Gracie lost to another Shooter / Catch Wrestler. You would have thought Sakuraba would have got them used to the fact Jiu Jitsu is not unbeatable no matter hor formidable it may be.........
Renzo took the lesson of this fight against Sakuraba. Sakuraba still was able to beat Renzo. None the less, Grappling (no matter what language) is still the shit.

@mcblah yeah it was mad confusing especially since the uploader didnt put any additional details but wikipedia says that he lost this due to unanimous decision.
@mcblah headshots on the ground were illegal in rings fights.That was a facelock lad,tamura is catchwrestling trained not bjj so the techs are somewhat different
Catch Wrestling ftw.

Renzo has never worked a fight and wouldn't.

really strange fight...so many opportunities for KO punches not taken?
2:02, why does Tamura not go for an arm submission?
what was that final submission? it wasn't a choke, his arm was over Gracie's face...
i'm confused all around

it looks like a workbecause it looked like renzo stopped in the middle of several moves ,either that or he was severly tired

Something looks weird about this fight.

it does look strange.
renzo was stalling like a whitebelt, gave his back easily, & did a fancy get up maneuver instead of the typical gracie way of standing up.
is this pro wrestling?

@madmikemaniac it does look dodgy but RINGS was supposed to be legit from just before this match
