VALKYRIE announced on their blog today three matches have been added to their Apr. 11 Differ Ariake show. All matches are scheduled for three three minute rounds. In a match contracted for 52.2kg, VALKYRIE matchmaker Yasuko Mogi will face Akiko Naito. Mogi trains at Strapple. Her record is 3-5 and her last fight was a loss to Misaki Takimoto on the Oct. 24 VALKYRIE show. Naito trains at WK. Her record is 5-9 and her last fight was a loss to Outi Louhimo at the Oct. 17 Fight Festival show in Helsinki, Finland. Naito won their previous match by split decision at the Mar. 11, 2007 SMACKGIRL show. In a match contracted for 58kg, Naoko Torashima will face HARUMI. Torashima is returning to MMA after an almost seven year absence. She trains at WK. Her record is 5-2 and her last match was a win over Maki Koyakashiro at the Aug. 30, 2003 MMA Gals show. HARUMI now trains at Blue Dog. This is a new dojo that is also the new home of Hisae Watanabe. Her record is 0-12 and her last loss was to Hiroko Kitamura at the July 11 JEWELS show. The third match is contracted for 58kg and is probably the most interesting of the three matches. Mutsumi Kasai (pictured) debuted in 2003 and then disappeared for a few years and returned in 2008. She is making her VALKYRIE debut. She trains at Paraestra. Her record is 3-0-1 and her last fight was a win over Celine at the July 11 JEWELS show. Her opponent Ayame trains at WK.
