Enticing mystery shrouds the air when two female warriors about to meet, both formidable, are inching closer towards elite status.
Against wrestlers they are supposed to defeat, they always do.
Fighting against the upper elite is a challenge.
When two wrestlers are accomplished, from different companies and countries and have never faced one another, there is mystery in the air.
As a point of reference, both girls soundly defeated former Danube wrestling alum Kimbra, a fairly good wrestler in her own right.
Welcome to England’s Sativa vs Russia’s Amrita.
They are both very good wrestlers, here we are going to find out who is better.
SATIVA V AMRITA

This exciting match takes place in Budapest.
Aisa serves as referee and introduces the beautiful ladies to a loud applause.
Time to wrestle.
The two warriors begin with upper neck clinching in slow movements.
Sativa tries to strike first with a scissor takedown but Amrita breaks the hold. In a fluid motion she traps Sativa in a floor to sitting body scissors.
Sativa stares straight ahead, unblinking and unyielding. Amrita has no plans to yield and keeps Sativa locked into the scissor.
This will go on for minutes.
Finally Aisa admonishes, “Come on girls”.
Will Sativa give? No. She has been trapped but at approximately the 3 minute mark, she breaks the hold.
The two determined fighters stay on the ground hand fighting until Sativa quickly circles Amrita and flattens her out with a cross body pin in an effort to gain control.
Like a flexible cat, Sativa swiftly swirls again and encases Amrita in a position to get a smother. Amrita appears to be content to stay there until Aisa begins to count her out.
Amrita moves Sativa out of the smother position but Sativa is too quick and maintains control. She stays mounted on Amrita and attempts a rear naked choke.
Amrita continues to try and fight her way out but Sativa stays locked in to her mission. She pulls Amrita back against the wall and has her trapped in earnest.
For a second Amrita appears to have injured herself and Sativa breaks the hold and asks if she is okay?
The nicely fit girl is okay but stunned.
This is enough for Sativa to finish the job as she tightens the rear naked choke and Amrita submits at approximately the five minute mark.
Sativa leads 1-0.
As round two begins, the pre-fight nervousness and puzzlement about tactics is dissipating.
Sativa’s ability to scramble around while on top of Amrita is emerging as a problem for the athletic star.
While Amrita is underneath, Sativa scrambles around on top of her and nestles there. Amrita appears to be content to let that happen, at least for the moment but Aisa is not having any of it and begins to count her out.
Amrita kicks out of the submitting position but Sativa still has top control.
The two engage again and the position of control is now up for grabs.
They are energetic in their fighting and fall off the mats.
Once back on, Sativa tries to trap Amrita in a side body scissors and does.
Can she make the slightly larger girl tap? No. Amrita breaks the hold.
Now they are back to hand fighting.
Sativa pins Amrita against the padded wall and tries for a floor to standing body scissors. Amrita is trapped but is just too strong to be submitted in this way and yet Sativa persists but is making little headway while Amrita is pushing her forearm on Sativa’s throat.
At this point, the control can go either way.
Amrita stands, breaks the body scissors and Sativa falls to the mats.
The two warriors are on their knees, doing a little hand fighting but resting as well. They both have spent a ton of energy and the outcome of the match is still in doubt.
Aisa admonishes, “Come on girls”, letting them know it is time to get back into action.
Amrita does so by lunging for Sativa’s head for a headlock but misses. Quick to pounce, Sativa pushes Amrita to the mats and controls her with the initiation of a cross body pin and lays flat upon her.
They stay in that position.
Some rude person from the audience blurts out, “Come on girls”. Sativa seemingly a little annoyed retorts, “Do you want to come?” as in, get down here on the mats and wrestle with us?
That quiets him down.
It is one thing for the referee Aisa to insist they keep the action going, it is another thing for someone comfortably sitting in their chair to insist on the same.
Amrita adds, “I’m sure he does”.
To keep them moving, Aisa begins to count Amrita out and Amrita breaks the hold and quickly Sativa attempts a brutal arm bar but can’t hold it.
Back to the center of the mats.
The two engage in some slow hand fighting before Sativa takes a risk and tries for a body scissors, but misses, then Amrita gains control and traps Sativa in a body scissor for real.
Will Sativa tap?
She doesn’t and finally breaks free of Amrita’s arms, but not her legs. Still, sitting up, Sativa is safe for now.
Amrita sensing the end moves forward and clasps Sativa again, squeezing, trying for a last attempt submission.
Aisa calls time. The match is over.
Sativa wins a tight one, 1-0.
SUMMARY
When two girls have defeated many and are virtually never upset by a lesser skilled wrestler, they are rock solid and the real deal.
It didn’t surprise us that the match would end 1-0. Extremely close.
Sativa had the scrambling ability and seemingly a slightly higher skillset and Amrita was stronger and very determined.
A solid performance from two very determined high quality European female fighters.
