Axel Gris

Champion Axel vs Lobo Gris, Match 807 (UCW)

Two of UCW's most popular and capable grapplers face off in the squared circle; one is UCW champ, and the other, almost certainly destined to be champ someday. The question is Is this the day? Both Lobo and Champion Axel are ready for this match, physically and psychologically. Both are noted for their sense of fair play, yet both have tempers that sometimes get the better of them. 

The fight proves that putting two good guys in the ring can be just as explosive as any other combination. That's especially true when the good guys, like Lobo and Axel, are well trained and like hurting their opponents, and they don't particularly mind taking a punch for the opportunity to deliver two punches in return.

I like the way Axel targets Lobo's gut. Lobo has a beauty, divided vertically by a fetching string of coal-black hair. Neither man sports a solid eight-pack, so the blows are delivered feelingly. The assaults are sudden and robust. It's easy to imagine the pain set loose here, but almost impossible to figure whose navel will be hid behind the gold championship medallion.
