Somehow the fact the he used uchi mata surprised me more than his defeat

That wasn’t uchimata. Abe was going for ogoshi with split squat stance which is his 2nd favorite technique after double sleeve sode.

I think you might be right he was going for a hip throw and white initiated first by lifting the hooked inside leg. If that’s the case, genius set up from Dzhebov.

It was more likely an uchimata, though

Edit: You’re right! He forced Abe to go for Uchimata. https://youtube.com/shorts/tk_AxwE2eII?si=nU7Q0yP7NxEwFomQ
