WORLD CUP 2000 Tournament 1st Round
Becky Levi vs. Miwako Ishihara. Levi leaned on Ishihara, but otherwise wasn't able to do much with her height and weight advantage. Ishihara did some damage fighting from the inside, but not enough to win the fight. Boring.
Junko Yagi vs. Flor Holman. Yagi was aggressive and did more damage even though her technique is worse. She bloodied Holman's nose with right hands. Since Holman is supposed to be a kickboxer she should have won because it was almost all standup. The ending was weird. Holman hit Yagi, who had Holman against the ropes and was on the offensive, hard enough to back her off, but then slumped over in pain in her corner and the ref stopped it.
Erin Torghill vs. Irina Rodina. Close fight. These rules really put Elina at a disadvantage because her takedowns are pretty worthless in the scoring and she only gets 20 seconds to work for a submission so her ability to keep the opponent down is negated. Her size works for her when it comes to takedowns, but against her because her stamina isn't going to be as good. Torghill was a lot better striker. She didn't do much damage, but whatever she did was apparently worth more than 4 takedowns.
Kyoko Inoue vs. Svetlana Gundarenko. Kyoko was off balance and out of control. She tried her lariat, but Gundarenko caught her and threw her down. Gundarenko had no problem taking Kyoko down, and Kyoko had no clue of how to defend herself once she got there.
Marloes Coenen vs. Mika Hiragai. Quick submission.
Megumi Yabushita vs. Bambi Bertoncello. Bambi is mainly a kickboxer, but she never got off. yabushita had too much quickness and ability for her. She dominated the fight, even giving Bambi a version of the suisha otoshi.
2nd Round
Becky Levi vs. Junko Yagi. Levi tried to fight Yagi like she did Ishihara, but Yagi was better equipped to stand up to her. Still, Levi pretty much had her way in round 1. Yagi tried her judo throws, but couldn't get the leverage against such a large opponent. It was all standup, with Yagi fighting hard but ultimately not being able to get over her size disadvantage.
Erin Torghill vs. Svetlana Gundarenko. Torghill came out throwing, but Gundarenko had more energy than I expected. Gundarenko didn't throw great punches, but they allowed her to get inside and grab Torghill. Gundarenko took some blows, but eventually she'd get Torghill down and put her weight on her. Torghill needed to make Gundarenko work harder, burn more energy. She did pretty well striking since she was always willing to stand toe to toe with Gundarenko, but eventually Gundarenko would get her down. With this scoring system, Torghill was probably ahead on points, but you have to last two rounds for that to matter and she didn't even come close.
Semifinals
Becky Levi vs. Marloes Coenen. Coenen would throw a punch then run so Levi couldn't counter. Coenen used a dobitski udehishigigyakujujigatame, and although Levi fell on top, Levi still had to submit because her arm was straight
Megumi Yabushita vs. Svetlana Gundarenko. This was such an exciting match because Yabushita, the crowd favorite, fearlessly took it to the huge Russian even though you could fit five of her in one Gundarenko. It was funny to see Gundarenko getting a yellow card to avoid getting taken down by little Yabushita. Yabushita was so outsized that Gundarenko had to punch unnaturally low to avoid punching over her head. On the other hand, Yabushita had to jump to try to punch Gundarenko in the face. Gundarenko could get Yabushita down, but Yabushita would just cover up so Gundarenko would waste her energy getting nowhere. The rules were really in Yabushita's favor because Gundarenko probably could have kept her down the whole fight, but instead she had to use bursts of energy trying to do something in the mere 20 seconds she got and then she had to get right back to trying to take Yabushita down again. One of the highlights was Gundarenko suplexing Yabushita, but Yabushita getting right on top of her and trying to get the hooks in. Not a great match, but certainly a fun one to watch. I'm not sure Yabushita really won, but the yellow card, huge size disadvantage, and crowd support was probably the difference in a close fight.
Special Match: Atsuko Sakuraba vs. Tatiana Kovochinova. Sakuraba had no idea what she was doing. She tried to strike, but let's just say her form is the opposite of her figure. Well, I can't help but mention that she was throwing punches that couldn't reach Tatiana unless Tatiana inexplicably jumped intot hem. Tatiana could take her down anytime she wanted. Sakuraba bravely and stupidly tried to avoid submitting to the udehishigigyakujujigatame because there was only 6 seconds until the standup. Sakuraba lasted, but Tatiana did so much damage to her arm in this time that Sakuraba couldn't continue.
Final: Megumi Yabushita vs. Marloes Coenen. Best match on the show. Yabushita was getting Coenen down, but Coenen probably did more from the bottom than Yabushita did from the top. Coenen was able to attempt a few armbars from the bottom, which is more than Yabushita was able to do from the top. Yabushita lacked the reach for standup, but she was able to take Coenen down a decent number of times and Coenen wasn't able to do anything notable in standup either. Even after overtime it was still too tough to call. Yabushita controlled the fight, but Coenen came closer to winning. Very good final.

Erin Toughill vs. Miwako Ishihara R1 0:27. Ishihara was a 4 x 4, and it was way too easy for Toughill to just keep kneeing her in the head.
Megumi Yabushita vs. Shannon Hooper R1 0:29, Weird match. Yabushita starts getting pounded on when Hooper predictably takes her back after the head & arm throw, but Yabushita does this weird pro wrestling style escape that looks like something Regal might come up with where she grabs the wrist & just keeps spinning from left to right. Though she has no control other than the wrist, Hooper has no idea how to alleviate the pressure & shockingly taps.

Semifinals
Erin Toughill vs. Marloes Coenen R1 5:00. Competitive, back & forth fight. As with most of Coenen's losses, the main problem was the opponent was much bigger & stronger. The stoppage was some combination of bad reffing & the language barrier. Toughill dropped Coenen with a nasty right straight to the nose just before the bell, and Coenen walked to her corner & started talking to them in preparation for the next round, not realizing the ref was still counting for some reason even though she was up, I guess because she ignored him rather than looking at him, but he also didn't come over to check her or anything. I thought the punch could have broken her nose, but never thought it would be a finisher, and she clearly could have continued.
Megumi Yabushita vs. Roxanne Modafferi 2R UD. These were the only two fighters in the tournament who really wanted to win by submission, but I'm not sure if that made this a good or bad matchup given the time constraints on the ground. It was good in the sense that they got to work in their domain, but their defense was also too strong to be caught in something so quickly. They had to set it up, and by then you'd have a situation such as Modafferi finally getting the triangle position only to have it stood up. The rules were normally a big disadvantage to Yabushita, but in this case they were to her advantage, as she had the better striking & throwing games, but Modafferi was the more dangerous submission fighter. Highlight was Modafferi going down to avoid the impact of the ipponzeoi then when Yabushita got up & prepared for a standing guard pass, she picked her leg & took her back, working for the rear naked choke. Close fight.
