A round with Shinya Aoki @HQ during Metamoris week.

[Slick Rick]

Great job Slick Rick! I cant imagine how stron aoki must feel on top. Great job keeting those butterflys sticky!

I was wondering, did the meathook feel available to you at all? I know his head and arm contol must have been unreal.

Great mount escapes!

Hi Mario. I would have tried but pressure for sure. Lots of it. I tried to get an angle but he stayed square. Dude was deceptively strong. That's Aoki though. I was probably a buck fifty to his 170 I'm guessing, but felt more like 200 with the leverage.
