Oh Sang-Uk v Jean-Philippe Patrice Highlights | Bout 4 | World Fencing League | Los Angeles 2026

Of the blade. And again so we see we saw you actually see uh Osamu's like you know he's ready for to charge forward to speed but he's he anticipates that uh Patrice is actually going to move back with him so he's not ready to finish that attack. Attack falls short for Sangu and you see those legs that are really really good for oh I mean like like you saw so what's called a flung right it's where in Saber you're actually not allowed And you see it's so like so scary in those defensive moments defense is incredibly hard in Saber right essentially it's like an advantage marker and the arrow will go oscillate back and forth you see how how close I was able to keep his distance Philippe was able to finish his attack there right on the arm which is a nice finish there but you want to you know stay moving fast without necessarily moving closer so that jump in the air what it allows you to do is it allows you to keep like high speed motion but not but translate it up rather than forward so you can actually like maintain a lot of power and speed without getting too close to your opponent so it's a way to kind of deceive you know and looks fast but I'm not actually getting closer to you right so it's it's used uh as a way to to confuse the opponent a little bit. And again we see that uh they both like kind of take that small step forward and they're both looking okay what's my opponent going to do oh has the attack there but again he's just a little bit like unsure of when he wants to actually finish you get you know it's tough so what I want to explain is you know it's not so easy just extending the arm and hitting right it's it's a balancing game that you have to play you finish too early so it's it's it's quite a you know a delicate line that you have to walk there we see you know I think the when Patrice actually you know moves with him at that speed that's where oh it's most comfortable because you know when you try to backpedal against oh he's just so fast that he's so confident it's like I've got you right at each other they charge right at each other so we're gonna he's uh So even with that more lenient simultaneous you know simultaneous action being both people attacking it vaguely the same time right and there we finish it you get that long attack finishes right under the arm and we're back within one attack for Patrice and he gets it There's some gray area to that decision that one yeah I mean there there is but that one was you know again we're being more lenient on the simultaneous but that one is clear enough where Wow that one is a really a really long pace and an amazing defense you know I mean that long charge I mean super impressive for Patrice to actually you know be able to get away from that attack not easy at all you saw how fast they were going uh but then to when you know when he takes over the attack oh just you know catching him at a moment of hesitation you know just you know reaching out his arm and a nice counterattack from Patrice it is looking more and more like Team Shield is going to close this out Patrice victorious winning over Ossong Wu 10 to 7
