looks relieved Maybe Royce would gas or maybe catch a late sub.Ken didnt make any attempts to sub Royce who wasnt tapping to strikes unless ref stopped fight

Royce had nothing for him by he end.
It wasn’t going anywhere but downhill from there. He wasn’t even threatening to attempt subs, just surviving.
Corner likely would have thrown in the towel.
You can say what you want about his strategy and the time limit draw rules at the time. The reality is that Ken won the fight.

Having read through this entire thread what I have gathered is that neither gentleman would have fared well in The Kumite.
reality is it was a draw and first one a sub for Royce.I wont count the 3rd.if judges id have given to Ken but if there were judges they may have changed strategy
