Two VALKYRIE matches added to Feb. 28 CAGE FORCE show

GCM announced today two VALKYRIE matches for the Feb. 28 CAGE FORCE show at the Torokozawa Civic Gym in Saitama. As I reported previously, VALKYRIE will not be running their own show but will have several matches on the CAGE FORCE show. This is obviously being done to save money because they want to run matches in the cage and a stand alone show would be expensive. The first match is at 56.7kg and will have Kazue Matake vs Kinuka Sasaki. Matake (pictured) is 3-1 and her most recent fight was a win over Yang Joo Lee at the July 23, 2007 CMA Festival. Her only loss was to Rin Nakai. Sasaki is 2-6-1 and her most recent bout was a draw against Mutsumi Kasai at the Oct. 26 Shooto show. The second match is at 48.5kg and will have Kayo Nagayasu vs Maho Muranami. Muranami won their previous match at the Jan. 26, 2007 Shooto show. Nagayasu is 7-6-1 and most recently lost to Yasuko Tamada at the June 26 Shooto show. Muranami is 4-5-1 and most recently lost to Yasuko Tamada at the Dec. 26, 2007 Smackgirl show. Matake & Muranami are both with the WK Dojo which is the home dojo for VALKYRIE.
