Noriko-T (Japan) vs. Serin Murray (Heng Kuai Fighting Arts, Australia)

This was the big one a world title fight and the crowd went into raptures when the local fighter Serin Murray was introduced by the charismatic MC James White. Muray looked fit and well prepared however the Japanese fighter noriko-T was a very solidly built fighter who exuded power and determination and it looked like being a tough night for Serin. The fight opened cautiously and it quickly became obvious Serin Murray had done her homework. Noriko-T was very much a ‘walkup’ fighter who was clearly used to over powering her opponents. To counter this bulldog like approach Serin utilised the ropes to great effect and when noriko-T attempted to rush in she was met with some well timed and cleverly executed push kicks which sent her to the canvas on a number of occasions.

As the fight wore on Serin utilised her speed to confound and frustrate noriko-T who simply had no answer to a fighter who was able to deflect her power punches while inflicting punishment of her own. By the end of the fight noriko-T was a frustrated and battered opponent who had been stung by stinging jabs and powerful push kicks to which she had no answer.

The fight as deserving of a world title went to the judges and to the delight of the enthusiastic crowd Serin Murray received a unanimous points decision and emerged as the deserving holder of the Flyweight Word title, it just doesn’t get any better than that.
