Fujiwara decided he was going to use this match to prove that he could strike, so he pretty much made Kiraware into his punching bad.
Fujiwara made a joke or two and kissed Kandori at one point, but otherwise it was a serious exhibition.
Malenko is a good solid technician, but Fujiwara was still his boring self that doesn't put his opponents over and more than he "has to." A lot of weardown and positioning, but not a lot of near finishes.
