Rin Nakai - Female MMA

And another female mixed martial artist....
Female MMA fighter Rin Nakai was recently ranked number seven in the world among female fighters in the Super Flyweight category.
Which kinda confuses me because at Sherdog, Rin is listed at 135 which would put her in the Bantamweight category.
Anyway, one look at her and you can tell why she's on the Asian Fitness blog.
Besides the fact that she has to be in shape to compete in MMA, take a look at those biceps.
And she's five foot one.
Rin's MMA record at the moment is 7-0-0, with 2 wins by TKOs, 2 wins by submission (an armbar and a Kimura/reverse keylock) and 3 wins by decision.



Her last victory was over Megumi Yabushita by Unanimous Decision at GCM - Valkyrie 6 on June 19th, 2010.

Here is Rin taking on Tomomi Sunaba at Pancrase - Shining 10 on December 7th, 2008

Mika Nagano - Female MMA Fighter

It's been awhile since I have done a female MMA fighter here.
But you know they are fit, because mixed martial arts training can be just as grueling as training for fitness or bodybuilding.



This lovely young lady is female mixed martial arts fighter Mika Nagano.
Mika was born on December 29th, 1983 in Gifu, Gifu, Japan.
She's five foot three and weighs 114 pounds.



Mika's nickname is "Future Princess", and by the pictures, you can probably tell why.
But is Mika more than just a pretty face?
Yes she is.
She has been a pro since 2007 and has a MMA record of 7-3-0 (five of those wins were by arm bar submissions).
Her last MMA fight was a win over Celine Haga via submission (armbar) at Jewels - Ninth Ring on July 31st, 2010.

Now (according to Frank Pozen over at his blog), Mika will be working for the Japanese wrestling promotion Ice Ribbon.
She'll make her debut at Ice Ribbon's Aug. 23 Korakuen Hall show.
