Bas held a standing guillotine, and while falling, landed a devastating knee to the liver. This fight would have been stopped immediately in today's MMA. Conversely, Fuke was given 10 seconds to recover, and was able to get back to his feet, but ref still called the fight off. Prompting Fuke to crumble to the canvas once again in agony.

Following his loss to Funaki, Shamrock went 3-1-1 in his next 5 fights. In all three of his wins, he used the catch wrestling he'd learned from Ken at the Lion's Den and from Japan to finish with rear naked chokes. He displayed his aggressive submission-hunting style perfectly against Takaku Fuke. Throughout the fight, Frank pressured Fuke from mount and back mount, always attacking and looking for chokes or joint submissions.
