Three matches announced for Oct. 24 VALKYRIE show

VALKYRIE announced today the first three matches for their Oct. 24 Differ Ariake show. As on their previous shows, this will piggyback on a CAGE FORCE show. The accompanying picture is the poster for the show. The proposed main event between Yuka Tsuji and V1 is postponed to due an injury to Tsuji so I'm not sure what the main event will be. All matches are scheduled for three three minute rounds. First is a 46kg match between Naoko Omuro and Yukiko Seki. Omuro trains at VALKYRIE's home dojo WK. Her record is 9-7-3 and her last fight was a win over SACHI at the Apr. 25 VALKYRIE show. Seki trains at Tomoegumi (Megumi Yabushita's dojo). Her record is 5-17 and her last fight was a loss to Asami Kodera on the July 11 JEWELS show. The second match is at 52.2kg between veteran kickboxer Jet Izumi and Emi Fujino. Izumi trains at M16. her MMA record is 5-5-1 and she just returned to MMA after four years in kickboxing. She drew with WINDY Tomomi at the Aug. 9 SHOOTO show. Fujino trains at WK. Her record is 8-3 and her last match was a loss to V1 at the Apr. 25 VALKYRIE show. She also made her pro wrestling debut on the Aug. 23 Ice Ribbon show. The third match is at 48.5kg between Maho Muranami and SACHI. Muranami trains at the Toikatsu branch of WK. Her record is 4-5-2 and her most recent match was a draw against Kayo Nagayasu at the Feb. 28 CAGE FORCE show. SACHI trains at Zendokai. Herrecord is 5-4-1 and her latest match was a loss to Naoko Omuro at the Apr. 25 VALKYRIE show. None of those matches seem like main event quality. We'll see what else they come up with.
