I thought it was a really close fight personally,I had Fujii winning it but I didn't think it was a robbery when frausto took it,overall Fujii landed more shots,especially in rds 2 and 4,but rd for rd scoring,it was close fight.
I scored the fight 48-47 to Fujii.
I didn't agree with the way Jimmy Smith was calling it or scoring it during the fight though,I thought he was being as bad as Rogan can be when a fighter he really likes is fighting.
I thought the first was a close rd,Fujii landed the more shots but Frausto also landed her fair share and had Fujii in trouble and came closest to stopping the fight with that big kick and flurry near the end.
I scored that rd to Fujii,but I can see how frausto could of won it.
Rd 2 Fujii
Rd 3 Frausto
Rd 4 Fujii
Rd 5 Frausto
I'm still baffled that Fujii didn't try and get this to the ground from the off,yes Frausto might be hard to get down,but once she's down,she's a fish out of water,especially against a girl of Fujii's skills,Fraustos a kickboxer.
Fujii only tried to take her down once I think,if she was constantly working for it from the off,instead of trying to stand and trade,I'm pretty sure she would of got her down eventually and then the fight would of swung hugely in Fujii's favour.
She has 18 subs to her name for good reason,she can hold her own striking with most,but her game is submissions and IMO,she should only use her striking to set things up.
