This is the first video I have seen of Fujii. If this video is a good representation of her, I like Fujii’s skills, spirit, and sportsmanship.

oh, by the way. Women in sports = epic fail, and that includes mma.

no you stupid loser, it’s me again. Go watch TV or something, Sezam Street is on, your favorite show. I’ll comment here for now and you can’t do anything about it. And stop pretending to be me idiot, i am the real SCM.

Wow another imposter. Your fucking sick bro.

Mega Megu is a monster. Pretty sure she can destroy guys in similar weight classes.

I understand most are saying there are not enough women fighters to fill a competitive weight class. But even if there were, it would still be unwatchable. Women’s MMA is like women’s basketball. No wait, it’s even worse.

wow, thank you very much Ben. I am really greatful that u banned that asshole that pretended to be me. I am now forever in your debt, ask whatever you want and I will give to you. Thank you man!

wow, i almost fell asleep watching her double-leg/armbar technique.
It would not take much to train for that, why does win?

but at the same time, if there are few really talented fighters and they run out of high level competition to showcase it could be popular for a little while and then simply fall into obscurity. if women’s mma is going to become big it has to have more talent and at least one complete division that they can put on every other card or something.

I love the sport of MMA, and to me, technique is just as impressive as explosive power, or huge takedowns. With the proper marketing the UFC could make any casual UFC fan interested, by highlighting the technical skills of female fighters. Womens MMA is at a point where it needs support, to encourage more women to begin taking up the sport, thus filling the gaps in weight classes, and hopefully elevating the level of Womens MMA.

Wow, its already working. The comments section is readable again. That being said women’s mma has a long way to go before it is on the ufc. and as it should be. There aren’t enough fighters to sustain elite competition. There aren’t enough names to power a weight class. And probably most importantly the weight classes have some bugs that need to be worked out as evidenced by both cyborg and carano up to this point. Women’s mma is really a work in progress at this point.

mdollas: morgan is that u?

wow, i actually just got done watching the HL and megumi is impressive

Thank the lord. THANK YOU! Seriously though i think that was Caps lock as the imposter on my name.

Youll see that you will get banned.

War Mega Megu!!! I think she could take Gina even though shes only 115.

By the way, good look on requiring users to register. The old system made the comments unreadable because of all the shenanigans going on.

The Honest Moose was right.
Women MMA is kinda like the WNBA. Differant set of skills and more technical, but not as explosive or exciting. It just doesn’t do anything for me.

i’m so confused! why can’t everyone just be honest?

the first few days of this registering thing are gonna b hilarious. trust me on that, i am honest after all.

@ben- it has been pointed out that there might be 2 scm on the site. they have two varying membership terms. FYI.
i like the structure of the rules here.

@ SCM

i agree that the first’s shouldn’t get banned…

everyone gets tempted sometimes.

@ SCM:

sarah’s right, it was an imposter.  The real OBI is staying away until all the bugs are worked out.

I think I like Satoko Shinashi better than Fugii.

and just so every one knows…

the …. at the end of my name, is for UFC IN CALGARY ALBERTA CANADA.

Thats all you brains down in the USA who look a t a map and think Alaska is an Island beside Hawaii in the Pacific. I still got $10 that says half the country, including Miss South Carolina, has no clue of where this is….. you will though, as soon aa my buds Dana stops looking a freaking Toronto, and puts a bloody fight here!

hit it..Nah!

@sarah
if it was not OBI, who was that?? Still it’s gonna get so bad here if people will be banned sor saying ‘first’ and other harmless stuff, screw that.

Right on!!

@SCM that wasn’t OBI, that was someone who stole his name. which is probably why he was banned.

Seriously Dana “dumbass” White missed out on a great opportunity to expand the WEC with Women fighters…..That would have been incredible. I seriously can’t wait for the MMA world to open there minds to more woman fighters…..Woman or man, who cares…its takes one tough MOFO to get into the ring/octagon and test themselves. Props!

what the hell? Old, Bold and Irish got banned for saying ‘first’??? That’s a load of crap. With that bs going on it was much better before all this login crap, even when CAPS LOCK HAL and TUF Guy were around. Although HAL was kinda cool, i leked the guy. But OBI is probablu pissed right now, unban him!!

Gomi is a bum..he was a bum then & he is a bum now….

“is that all you wanted me to type Nick?…..okay..I’m done”

Probably. What do you think the lines would be for Carano/Cyborg?

Fujii is a monster. I would like to see Gomi get back that passion he used to have for fighting.

aaaaaand ban.

(in response to Blumpkin)

@sarah and vic_bot

Yeah, I’d definitely like to see more woman’s mma, and there are plenty of women martial artists, just not enough attention to that “mixed” part of it yet.

I can’t be the only one that thinks Carano/Cyborg should be a main event.

“Old” should be banned for his “first” post.

Fujii has great submissions.

I bet Dana will never have women in the ring in the UFC. The fighting is alright but it is kind of gnarly. I cant really explain it. They need to have that chick from that show, “Human Weapon” that knows Krav-maga. She would woop some cyborg ass.

Old Bald & Irish, that is a horrible idea.. I hope you were being sarcastic.

But i would like a shirt.

And thank you Ben G. for reading my email and responding. Nice to know you want to see HAL get beat haha… You dudes are tight.

Women fighters tend to turn the casual fan off. UFC will always be business first so thats a huge issue for them. And, yeah there aren’t that many women fighters that you could have a solid weight class system to fill the ranks of any organization.

Female fights rock. Women usually don’t have knock out power, so if you get two ferocious fighters they can have a sustained brawl for three rounds. ^^^^^ As previously posted, when there is more opportunity for women to fight professionally the skill level will go up. But I see good potential for entertaining fights here.

WOW!!! 4:31 Into that video, She shoots in for the toe hold!!! Wow. That takes some talent right there. Her opponent was even cheating trying to grab her top to get some leverage to pull out of it. Beautiful Submission. Girls got game. Props To Megumi Fujii.

Santos vs Gina would be a good opening night fight coupled with say, Baszler vs some other grappling oriented fighter. Stand-up + a ground war.

Only reason Dana probably hates the idea of woman’s MMA so much is that he didn’t think of it first / didn’t get there soon enough / is dumb?

eh, eh?

@superman – it’s not necessarily bad that you think that, but you might want to ask yourself *why* you think it’s not right.

even as a chick, i have a few problems with women fighters, but they’re basically the same problems i had with really early UFC fights: there aren’t enough fighters, the skill levels vary too much making for unfair matchups, and right now it’s too much of a gimmick or freak show.

i think if more women get interested in mma, and if the fight organizations begin accepting it, it could be really awesome. at the same time, i think it will probably always be a male-dominated sport.

I’m not that informed on the history of women’s MMA, but why do you guys think the UFC doesn’t add women to the undercard? Is it really because of what Dana said about not having enough women fighters?

obi: i think the wec would be a better place to start… and maybe a few on ultimate fight nights… so the average joe gets some exposure to it

Nice

yes its bad, now give me a blumpkin…

I dont like this woman fighting, its not right. Is it bad that I think that?

Shame Megumi isn’t bigger so Strikeforce could throw her into the Cyborg/Carano mix. She has some slick skills

Forgive the less seasoned question, but what happens in a two round fight if there’s a 1/1 split at the end of regulation? Is it like the Ultimate Fighter where they have a tiebreaker round?
