Smackgirl has added rising MMA star Masako Yoshida to their Nov. 29 Korakuen Hall show. Yoshida's record is 13-4-5 but she has been on an eleven fight unbeaten streak going back to Sept. 2005. Her most recent win was over Emi Tomimatsu on the Oct. 20 G-Shooto show. Her opponent is Naoko Ohmuro. Her record is 6-4-1 and her most recent match was a win over Shiyo Yamato at the June 30 Smackgirl show. These two fought to a draw on the Sept. 4, 2004 GCM Cross Section show. The pic is from that match. Yoshida has improved tremendously in the meantime and should be the favourite here. For one thing, Yoshida is 5'5" and Ohmuro in 4'11" so Ohmura has an uphill battle. Here's the lineup so far. All bouts are for two five minute rounds.
