Really great find ain’t it! There’s some early Vale Tudo I’d like to watch with Ryan too, that will similarly interesting I think…so watch this space!

2024-11-19 19:21:19 +0000 UTCThis is wonderful to see- what a find! Really interesting to see the technique on display, particularly the half butterfly sweeps. Strikes me that bouts from the 1990s like Mario Sperry/ Zinoviev etc don't look all that different.
