Beat Him Up

Kal Conner vs Tanner Ripley, Match 886 (UCW)

Raw, mean, and ready to bust out of their tiny trunks as sweat keeps them sopping wet, good guy Kal and bratty guy Tanner burst with energy and heartfelt animosity. Tanner is the draw for me. Kal is a solid grappler whose face expresses little of the pain he's feeling in Tanner's clutches. Tanner, however, contorts his sweaty face and bares his teeth almost nonstop. The more Tanner throws temper tantrums the more I want Kal to bust the crybaby's teeth with his bare knuckles. That doesn't happen, but Kal exhibits his bonafide abilities as a fighter, as usual. This is a hot and turbulent match, worth its weight in sweat and bruises.
