She is the most successful woman in MMA and you could find few (if any) people that aren’t a fan in the women’s MMA community.
Megumi Fujii fulfilled a long term goal this past weekend fighting on the DREAM MMA card, wanting to fight on one of the biggest holidays in Japan; New Years Eve. She faced Spaniard Karla Benitez , who could be a front runner for best ring entrance this year. Mega Megu finished her off with her 13th armbar submission of her career. The “Queen of the Quick Kill” also racked up her 15th first round finish.
Bellator is working on getting Fujii back here to the states with a possible showdown with Jessica Aguilar sometime this year.
For now, enjoy the fight. (Hopefully we can get a translation later on what Fujii said post fight.)
