The UFC announced yesterday that MIZUKI vs Tecia Torres has been added to UFC on ESPN 8 Mar. 28 at the Nationwide Arena in Columbus, OH. This fight will be at Strawweight. MIZUKI is 25 years old from Japan. She now lives in New York City and she trains at Longo Serra in Long Island. MIZUKI began fighting at 16 years old and that's how long I have covered her career. It looks like she has completely recovered from knee surgery from a couple of years ago. She came to the UFC as a late replacement on the Aug. show in China. And the fight was at Flyweight. She won the fight by split decision. Her opponent Yanan Wu was passive considering she had a big size advantage. And Wu missed weight. So I thought MIZUKI did great. Tecia is 30 years old. Her record is 10-5. She is on a four fight losing streak. She was once ranked top ten and now she is #13. It's probably time for her to retire. But she's still ranked and that's why MIZUKI is getting this fight. I never thought Tecia was a good fighter anyway. She was always a one dimensional points fighter. MIZUKI seems to have improved since moving to the US. Aljamain Sterling was in her corner last time out. So I like MIZUKI getting ranked by winning this fight. And maybe Tecia will finally retire and use her law enforcement degree.
