Fatal Femmes Fighting announces next show


Fatal Femmes Fighting has announced that their next show will be on Apr. 3 at the Shrine Expo Center in Los Angeles. You may recall they had planned a show in Texas but that didn't come together. It looks like they're making up for it with this show. The main event will have Roxanne Modafferi defending her FFF Lightweight Championship against Brazilian Vanessa Porto. Modafferi has lived in Japan for the last few years. Her record is 11-4 and most recently won the May 27 K-GRACE tournament in Tokyo with wins over Hee Jin Lee, Megumi Yabushita & Marloes Coenen. Porto is 7-2 and most recently won over Hitomi Akano at the Nov. 3 FFF show. They're calling the second fight a co-main event but I think it's a step below the first fight. It will be Lana Stefanac vs Teyvia Reid for the FFF Heavyweight Championship. Stefanac is 5-0 and most recently won over Megumi Yabushita on the Dec. 26 Smackgirl show. Reid is 3-1 and most recently lost to Stefanac on the Nov. 19, 2006 Full Contact Fight show. Stefanac can be difficult to book because of her size. That's not a knock on her but a lot of the better fighters today are in a lighter weight class. She's very good. Also scheduled to appear on the 16 fight card are Amanda Buckner, Takayo Hashi, Carina Damm, Jessica Aguilar & Nicdali Calanic. I wish these guys would get on The Fight Network so I could watch the show.
