Roxanne ModafferiFirst up, at Moosin: God of Martial Arts held on Friday, May 21, at the DCU Center in Worcester, Massachusetts, Roxanne Modafferi defeated Tara LaRosa via split decision (30-27, 28-29, 29-28).
As you can see from the judges scores, this was not a one sided match.
This bout brings Roxanne to 15-5-0 and puts Tara at 18-2-0.
After the match, Sarah Kaufman (11-0-0) expressed interest in facing Roxie, so Moosin might have another good fight waiting in the wings.
In my last post I said that Megumi “Mega Megu” Fujii (19-0-0) would be fighting at Bellator 21 on June 10th.
MMARising.com is reporting that Megumi will be facing Sarah “White Tiger” Schneider (4-4-0).
And Bellator has added another female MMA bout, this time to their Bellator 23 event on June 17 at the Kansas City Power and Light District in Kansas City, Mo.
This time, Sarah's sister Tammie Schneider (3-9-0) will be taking on Lisa Ward (12-5-0) in a 115-pound women’s bout.
Since I havent done a top ten list in awhile, and for some reason WAMMA hasnt done an update on their female mixed martial arts rankings since October 2009, I thought I'd put up a couple of links to others that have updated their lists....
Michael David Smith has his list of the top ten female MMA fighters up over at MMA Fighting.com.
And you an see that here
And over at Independent World MMA Rankings, they have a very detailed list put up for May 2010.
You can see that one here
By the way, WMR promises that the June 2010 Women's Divisional Rankings will be published on June 18, 2010, so you might wanna keep an eye out for that on their site.
