Very impressive and very instructive!
I have two main takeaways:
1) His go-to technique, after the initial clash and as the
opponent bulldozes, is to step off the line and get a *two-on-
one* on the opponent's arm (he doesn't always get it clean, but
strong control of one arm is the strategy)
2) When he doesn't get his first choice, he rotates strongly as
he is bulldozed back getting either a lovely hiptoss, or at
least turning the opponent's back to the mat (well, pit). The
'vigour' and 'snappiness' of his hip rotation is a thing of
beauty.
