Recently somebody asked me if Megumi Fujii, The Sambo Queen, would be on the Nov. 29 Korakuen Hall Smackgirl show. I suspected that after Fujii finished off the much heavier Tama Chan in 53 seconds in her most recent match, Smackgirl would have trouble finding an opponent for her. Well, they have found a victim...er...opponent. She is Serin Murray from Australia. From what I can tell, she is trained in karate and kickboxing and is making her MMA debut against Megumi Fujii. And like the Masako Yoshida/Naoko Ohmuro fight, this will be full MMA rules. Of course Fujii has a 7-0 record and is considered to be one of the premiere female fighters in the world today. This won't last long.
I forgot to mention previously that the MMA fighter known as Berry 15 will retire on this show with a full retirement ceremony. Berry was KOd by Hisae Watanabe in February and is still suffering from post concussion syndrome. She lost a close fight recently but decided afterwards to retire. Here's the complete card. All bouts are scheduled for two five minute rounds.
