Re: Just saw this, thought it worth sharing
Amanda's been doing alright lately. She still has a lot of development to go.
Her instincts are good, she doesn't shy from punches, and she circles away from the power hand. Her takedowns are basic, but her size works in her favor. Her punches on the ground are very disciplined and come at a steady clip. So yeah, she's off to a good start.

And in that one reply you outpaced all the knowledge that I have on the subject.
Well played sir.

Re: Just saw this, thought it worth sharing
I've only seen two of her Japanese fights on youtube, and she just demolishes her opponents through size. It would be good to see her fighting someone of a similar size and weight.

She has the benefit of living in the Bay Area, which is just a cornucopia of good places to train. The places she trains at is a greatest hits list: Fairtex for her Muay Thai, Gilbert Melendez for her Wrestling and I think she even treks down to Half Moon Bay to roll with Joao Peirini. You can't walk more than a mile in San Francisco without running into a world class camp.

Re: Just saw this, thought it worth sharing
Ah, Marloes. I had the pleasure of filming her back in 2002 and she is such a great lady. Badass in the ring, and completely elegant and humble outside of it. I ran into her back in 2007 when I was editing the Abu Dhabi Championships and she got 2nd. Great people over there in Amsterdam.
....and then there's Cris Cyborg....

She's a machine in the ring, not such a great character out of it?
Re: Just saw this, thought it worth sharing
No, Cris just got popped for roiding. Puts her wins in a different light.

Yar, that's not so cool. Explains her power to weight.
