Event was "VTJ in Osaka" on 06/19/2016.

I was a bit surprised. Hisae Watanabe had a lot of trouble dealing with Jeong Eun Park's speed.
Jeong fought many matches in Road FC. I'd say she might be better than Ye Ji Lee.

After seeing Hisae almost KO 16 year old Ye Ji Lee, I expected the same with Jeong Eun Park.
But this fight turned out much different.

And I think the judges were a little too kind to Hisae. o_O

She only clipped Lee, and it was a quick stoppage. She was having a lot of trouble up until then.... and she's much older and had been out of the game for a bit. It's expected.

It looked pretty brutal to me. Referee could have let it go a little longer, but I really didn't want to see a 16 year old get KO'd by someone as strong as Hisae Watanabe.

Nah, I was there cageside (event coordinator for WSOF-GC). We literally couldn't cut the video fast enough if the replay to not show Lee getting back up. Up until that point she had one the first round and the second was up for grabs.
 
Jung Eun Park is legit, arguably should've got a draw or win over both Fujino and Sarami. If there was a 3rd round she would have likely beat Hisae. She's going to be really good if she sticks with it.
