RENA is pissed with Ai Takahashi

RENA, Takeshi Caesar, Ai Takahashi

I don't normally write much about SHOOT BOXING because I don't like their product. But I would be remiss if I didn't tell you about the weigh in for tomorrow's match between RENA and Ai Takahashi. Usually in Japan, weigh ins are not done publicly so we never see the kind of staredowns that we see here. The two have been taking potshots at each other in the media. Takahashi obviously believes that she won the S-Girls Cup tournament final last August. And she has been making fun of RENA for getting knocked down during her recent exhibition match against teen kickboxing champ Erika Kamimura. RENA was not happy at all. And normally she seems like a very nice girl. Obviously SHOOT BOXING owner Takeshi Caesar saw an opportunity for some real fireworks. Caesar says that RENA has done a great job of reviving the S-Girls Cup. RENA thanked him and says that her track record got her the belt though Takahashi thinks differently. Takahashi smiled and said after tomorrow's match the belt will remain with the strongest person. She told RENA not to run away tomorrow. RENA says that doesn't make sense when last time RENA did all the hitting. When asked by a reporter why she had a scowl on her face, RENA says "I have the belt and have done nothing to deserve losing it". She also told Takahashi that her recent fights haven't been very good so who is she to talk about RENA. Takahashi told RENA that she has a bad mouth and that's not good. Takahashi is very confident in her ability and she will take the belt from RENA tomorrow. Caesar unveiled a new belt and Takahashi said "That will look good around my waist". Looks like tomorrow's match will be very interesting.
