VV Mei and WINDY Tomomi play footsie on S-Arena

Yesterday VV Mei and WINDY Tomomi appeared on Samurai TV's S-Arena combat sports digest TV show to hype their match on the Apr. 3 PANCRASE show at Differ Ariake. It was announced on the show that this match will be the main event of the show. You'll notice in the picture they are sitting next to each other. WINDY is in the center and VV Mei is sitting to her left. Apparently they never made eye contact but they were playing footsie under the table. VV Mei said she is well aware of WINDY's kickboxing skills and she will try to counter that with her ground game. She also said though she normally fights in a cage for VALKYRIE, she doesn't think she will have a problem adapting to a ring. WINDY said she has been working on her ground game and may not be as vulnerable as in the past. But she would like to keep it standing as that is her strength. She also said that though VV Mei is the VALKYRIE champ, PANCRASE is WINDY's home turf and she feels the PANCRASE ring gives her an edge. VV Mei said she did compete in a ring last year for SHOOT BOXING so it's not a big deal. Both fighters said they are worthy of a main event and plan an exciting fight. But WINDY thinks her experience gives her the edge.
