Satoshi Ishii - first match, US Senior National Championshi

[1swt]

I doubt he is an american citizen, it looks like it is an Open weight division at senior nationals. That is the only division foreigners can fight in at nationals.

@PankrationWarrior- the correct answer is he followed him, forget about what grip on what side, Ishii clearly guides blue and he follows allowing the natural movement to break his own balance! Ishii tried similar attempts earlier in the match but movement was not involved and the throws were dodged. DON'T FOLLOW! Both of these fighters are strong enough to win the match, Ishii has more experience.

Is he a US citizen now?

@PankrationWarrior DING, DING, DING, DING, DING! You sir are correct. You have the choice of picking between an all inclusive vacation to Hawaii or the mystery prize behind door #2. Actually, it was his right lapel. Granted, blue probably wasn't going to win this match through the battle of the grips. However, he allowed Ishii to get the inside grip and worse he allowed him to be comfortable with it.

Riddle me this. Name the key mistake the fellow in blue made starting at 1:10.
