Very interesting wrestling, striking allowed:

Looks like they win by taking the other guy down once. Interesting.
I think they count it as a fall when their opponent's back or belly touches the ground.
Notice there is ground grappling until one of the fighters is flattened out, but apparently the fall counts immediately, without having to hold the pin.
On one of the clips there is a knockout from a slap to the head.
COOL! Man those are some thick mofo's!!
I did not see the KO though Tim?
Jake
looks like fun.
yeah these guys are huge! It would be interesting to try it. As exhausting as wrestling is, it's much funner than going toe-to-toe. =)
There was a documentary on BBC that featured this wrestling style. This clip explains the rules a little:
