Shooto Year End Show 12/14/04

[MexicanFighter39]

Megumi Fujii vs. Nadia Van Der Wel
Hiroyuki Abe vs. Makoto Ishikawa
Katsuya Toida vs. Rumina Sato
Hiroyuki Takaya vs. Gilbert Melendez
Alexandre F. Nogueira vs. Hideki Kadowaki
Jake Shields vs. Akira Kikuchi
Vitor 'Shaolin' Ribeiro vs. Tatsuya Kawajiri

This Is A Great Card, I'm Kinda Suprised That There Hasn't Been Much Talk About This Card. The Last 2 Matches Are Title Matches, Jake Shields Defending His Shooto Middleweight Title And Shaolin Defending His Shooto Welterweight Title. Takaya vs. Melendez Should Be A Stand Up War As Both Like To Throw Leather And Toida vs. Sato Should Be A Great Grappling Match But I Give The Edge To Sato On The Feet. Overall, A Great Card That Should Produce An Exciting Night Of Fights.

Meguji is really moving up! First debuting on Smackgirl and taking out her opponent in less than a minute then beating Erica in Hook n Shoot. Finally she's making an appearance on a major MMA show! Maybe someday, Pride will have a special female fight on Bushido!

Good for Kawajiri, Kikuchi (moreso because I hate Shields) and Sato
Sucks for Takaya
