DEEP 37 ran Aug. 17 at Korakuen Hall with MIKU defending her DEEP Womens Lightweight Championship against Misaki Takimoto. The match was scheduled for two five minute rounds. These two have faced each other twice previously with a win apiece. They start out in the clinch and Takimoto hits a knee kick. Takimoto's attempted takedown fails and MIKU counters with a left hook. Her high kick forces Takimoto to retreat and MIKU hits a knee kick to the body. MIKU continues to score with strikes to the body for the remainder of round one. Takimoto attempts another takedown at the end of round one and is met by a punch to the body. MIKU continues her attack in round two. A left front kick knocks Takimoto down and she lands a left hook and a knee kick in the clinch. Takimoto attempts to respond but MIKU's attack pushes her back. A left kick stops Takimoto in her tracks. Another punch bends her over and then she crumples to the mat after another body kick. The match is stopped at 2:40 of round two. MIKU successfully defends her DEEP Womens Lightweight Championship. MIKU said the win was very satisfying as she still has memories of her loss to Takimoto in Tomaya in 2004. MIKU's record is now 18-4 and Takimoto's record is 8-9-4.
