HIROKO added to Aug. 19 SHOOT BOXING show

HIROKO
SHOOT BOXING announced today they have added a match to their Aug. 19 SHIBYA-AX show. It is contracted for Open Weight with JEWELS MMA fighter HIROKO facing Dutch boxer Dahlia Albarrs. I'm not sure about the spelling. Apparently she's a boxer from The Netherlands. Of course HIROKO's MMA record is 12-1 and she fights in the 145lb weight class. It can be tough to find opponents for her in Japan. She's expressed interest in coming to the US but she just came back from a facial injury she suffered in training at the end of last year. HIROKO was on last year's S-Girls Cup show. But they couldn't find an opponent and she wound up beating Aussie kickboxer Sandy Fumer in an MMA match. So at least she gets to try SHOOT BOXING this year.
