The MMA world really is crazy.
Never was that more evident than in a bout that divided the fight world between a 12-year-old girl and someone twice her age.
Japan's Momo Shimizu - not yet a teenager - took on 24-year-old opponent Momoko Yamasaki at Deep Jewels 16 overnight. While most people would be aghast at such a match-up taking place, they needn't have worried. The 12-year-old won.
In fact, she won easily. Shimizu needed just one round to assert her dominance over Yamasaki, finishing the fight by submission.
The youngster shrugged off some early front kicks from her foe, initiating the clinch before Yamasaki fell to the floor. Shimizu then took her back and performed a rear-naked choke which she held until the end of the first round.
