Loftus vs Turner

Evan Turner vs Zachery Loftus (Movimus)

Movimus brings two of its more intriguing grapplers together in this match: the poker-faced but remarkably effective Evan, the slim boy next door who can whip the muscle-boys' butts, and  inked and braided Zachery, every inch the Viking with the body of a Greek javelin thrower. This is Evan's eighth turn at Movimus (Vegas edition), and Zachery's second (his first was against muscle-stud Shawn Duncan, whom Evan has faced three times, with impressive results). According to the online description, which I have no reason to doubt, Evan requested the match-up, following a pattern of challenging bigger guys.

Evan has been surprising everybody with how, with little apparent effort, he subdues and submits the muscular wrestlers he's faced. These are not stiff-jointed bodybuilders I'm talking about. These guys have muscle, definition, AND significant training and experience in wrestling. Zachery's a college wrestler eager to accept the challenge yet not so foolish as to believe a 17-pound advantage counts for much against a challenger of Turner's prowess. In this battle, he needs to use his raw power to optimal effect. Four minutes in, he does just that, clamping onto Zachery's right ankle with such force that Evan feels the effects for the rest of the 19-minute match (23, counting the warm-ups).

Good looking athletes in a good, tight three-fall match make for great viewing for fans of real submission wrestling. Individual in their styles and seemingly curious to find out how much the other guy can take, Zachery and Evan are very watchable.
