Ran into Cindy at training Thursday night. She said that video of the fight had been up at You Tube, then down, and was now back up again. So, as long as it lasts, here's the fight.
It was great seeing Cindy. In a way, she's sort of the star of Gracie Barra Seattle, competing both in mixed martial arts and at the highest levels of grappling at Abu Dhabi. She was showing one of our purple belts some of her "little foot things", a variety of sweeps and escapes that all look initially like toehold attacks, but are remarkably effective.
In the Fujii fight, Cindy had to make 115, which meant losing nearly 30 lbs total. Fortunately, she says that she had a great time in Japan, that the Japanese fans were incredible and that SmackGirl is likely to have her back--and at something closer to her natural weight.
