G-Shooto held their June 11 show at Kitazawa Town Hall. The main event was the Strawweight Tournament final between Masako Yoshida and Yasuko Tamada. Tamada's strategy was to attack Yoshida in the standing position but Yoshida was able to gain an advantage when she got Tamada on the mat. It was a very close match and Yoshida won by a majority decision. 20-19, 20-20, 20-19. Yoshida said afterwards that she wants to graduate from Class C to Class B and also wants to go after some title belts. Here's the results of the show.
