Megumi Fujii

Megumi Fujii is one of the best female Mixed Martial Artists in the world. Fujii's grappling is awesome and if she gets your leg... you're cactus.
I quite like this particular fight. Note Fujii's left handed stance forces Welchin to circle in the other direction in order to avoid the reverse punch, although Welchin herself lands a good one early on. More critically, that also makes it harder to take a shot in. But Welchin's left leg drifts close in to Fujii's centre for just a moment and there's Fujii's line in.
Fujii moves inexorably to an arm bar, though fortunately Welchin taps out without injury.

  1. Nope. Don't feel that way at all.

    First rule of fighting arts: Respect.
    Second rule: There is always someone better.

    It would hurt just as much if it was a guy.
    As for "wounded pride"... then we go back to the first rule.

  2. Total respect, amigo. Just never had my ass handed to me by a chick. I know that they're out there but I rarely run across them (although I have dated a couple).
