Welcome to Frank Pozen's Big Bad Blog. A lot of folks have been asking me to update them about my recovery. So I thought I would start a blog primarily to do that but also to talk about other topics of interest including the wrestling business and whatever else I can think of. I plan to update this on a regular basis so check back and leave a comment if you wish.

Smackgirl announces Flyweight title match for Mar. 11 show
Smackgirl has announced a Smackgirl Flyweight Title match for their March 11 Shinjuku FACE show. It will be veteran fighter Satoko Shinashi (right) against Misaki Takimoto (left). They have fought twice before and Shinashi won both times, on Mar. 2, 2002 & July 6, 2003. Shinashi's record is 23-1-2 but that one loss was a big one. She was knocked out by Hisae Watanabe on the Aug. 4 DEEP show. Her most recent win was over Tae Kyung Kim on the Dec. 20 DEEP show. She's billed as a freelancer but I think she trains women at the DEEP dojo. Takimoto's record is 6-6-3 and her most recent fight was a loss to Lisa Ward on the Nov. 29 Smackgirl show. Shinashi said the loss to Watanabe was devastating but she is training hard and is the likely favourite in this match. She feels this match is a turning point for her.
