FFF 2: The Crystal Brawl Ward, Marquez, Porto Win!!! Posted On: 8/16/2007

Fatal Femmes Fighting Championship 2nd historic event took place July 14, 2007 at the Crystal Casino in Compton, California. Titled "The Crystal Brawl", 14 more Female Fighters, from the United States, Japan, and Brazil, brought their "A" games to the Circle Cage.
In a Title Elimination Bout between Tanya Evinger and Brazil's Vanessa Porto, Evinger started out with a strong right, but Porto countered with superior Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and snapped an Armbar on her opponent to take home the victory in the 1st Round. With that win, Vanessa Porto has earned a shot at Roxanne Modafferi's Lightweight Championship Belt. A Fight Date is coming soon for that one.
Also that evening, Lisa Ward successfully defended her FFF Flyweight Championship over Japan's Taeko Nagamine. Nagamine showed heart, but was overwhelmed from the beginning as Ward won by Rear Naked Choke in the 1st. Misaki Takimoto had pulled out of her rematch with Ward, citing injury. Nagamine was a late replacement.
