After the fight, Sakuraba complained that Akiyama’s legs were very slippery.
As Sakuraba as receiving his 50+ punches, he was talking to the ref, trying
to get him to intervene and investigate. The referee seemed to ignore the
“Gracie Hunter” and the fight was eventually stopped by the officials at
ringside. Afterwards, the ref did go over to check Akiyama’s body for any
oils or lubricants and didn’t appear to find any traces. However, the ref
did not check his legs. Although I didn’t witness this fight live in Japan,
Akiyama’s legs did appear to be a little ‘shiny’ from the video I saw.
Moreover, Akiyama seemed to escape Sakuraba’s single leg attempts rather easily.
If you’ve seen most of Sakuraba’s fights then you would know that he’s not
the type to make excuses or complain. After the match was over, an angered Saku
left the ring without shaking Akiyama’s hand and refused a post fight interview.
His actions weren’t typical of his character. Conspiracy theories aside, it’s a
shame to see Sakuraba endure a situation like this. It may be difficult to prove
foul play but it’s hard not to sense that something was wrong or awkward. It’
ll be interesting to see if K-1 further addresses the issue or chooses to remain
silent.
So where does Sakuraba go from here? When the Japanese legend jumped ship from
Pride to K-1,it signified a changing of the guard. Maybe the guard should change
again...
