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.

Ohhh that makes sense. I thought underhook uchi mata was a strange decision...

Now I see that Dzhebov forced uchi-mata sukashi by hooking the leg, despite the attack being Ogoshi (or maybe uki goshi)
