The main event for the Apr. 11 VALKYRIE show at Differ Ariaki was supposed to be the final of the Flyweight Championship Tournament between Yasuko Tamada (pictured) and Naoko Omuro. This has been postponed due to Omuro's injury. But VALKYRIE announced today on their blog that Tamada will fight on the show against veteran Yukiko Seki. The match is contracted for 45.4kg and scheduled for three three minute rounds. Tamada trains at AACC. Her record is 10-4-3 and her last match was a win over Happy Fukuko on the Feb. 10 VALKYRIE show. Seki is freelance. Her record is 5-18 and her last match was a loss to Naoko Omuro at the Oct. 24 VALKYRIE show. She is on a nine fight losing streak and hasn't won since 2007. Tamada won over Seki at the Nov. 28, 2006 SMACKGIRL show. Tamada's matches tend to go the distance so I would expect her to win by unanimous decsion.
