Female MMA Video

Here are some links to the most popular female mma video across the net.
Yes it was a slow news day, and I still haven't been able to find a thing on the “FEMALE FURY II” results.

The highest rated video is this one of Lisa Ward taking on Miku "Supernova" Matsumoto posted by elsdolf on YouTube.
Although Miku lost this one, she did come back to defaet Lisa at DEEP - Toyama Impact on June 28th, 2009.
Lisa's current record is 12-5-0 and Miku's is 21-4-0.

Female MMA, Sarah Kaufman, Miesha Tate and Shayna Baszler

Sarah Kaufman raised her undefeated record to 9-0 at ShoMMA with a unanimous decision over Miesha Tate (6-2) in a 135-pound fight.
Both women put on a good fight and were determined to win.
I wonder if Tate had more time to get ready for Kaufman, would the outcome have been any different?
Sarah as you know was a "last minute" substitute for Kim Couture.
But Sarah didn't have any extra prep time either as she just jumped into this fight.

The next fight though will be a different story, as Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker has already announced that the winner of this fight (Kaufman) will face Shayna Baszler on June 19th.
"The Queen of Spades" Baszler who is 9-5-0 and Kaufman will both have plenty of time to get ready for each other.

Now I wonder if we can get Strikeforce to extend the rounds to three minutes instead of five?

Shayna Baszler and the Top Ten Female MMA Stars

In response to the comment by zoneblog1 on the last entry......
I have featured Shayna Baszler three times on this blog in the past and I think she is a very good fighter.
The "Top Ten" list over there in the sidebar is the top ten most "searched" for female mixed martial artists.
Not the top ten "best".

Anyway, for those of you that don't know, Shayna Baszler (The Queen of Spades) was born on August 8, 1980 in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
Her mixed martial arts training is in Muay Thai and Brazilian Jiu-jitsu and her fight record is currently at 9-5 with all 9 wins via submission. She trains with former UFC heavyweight champion Josh Barnett.
Her last fight was a loss to Cristiane Santos by TKO on July 26, 2008 at EliteXC: Unfinished Business .

In all due fairness to her I did run another check and yes, this month Shayna did come into the top ten.....

Gina Carano
Kim Couture
Kaitlin Young
Cristiane Santos
Emily Fisher
Julie Kedzie
Tara Larosa
Satoko Shinashi
Shayna Baszler
Shelby Walker

I will be updating that list shortly.

But in all due fairness to the "over-marketed, picked-4-prettyness-only, hand-picked-opponent-only type ladies you call fighters"......
Out of that list, Cristiane Santos and Tara Larosa have both beaten her by TKO.
While Shayna has defeated Julie Kedzie.
