Ham Seo-Hee defends her atomweight title against Park Jung-Eun at Road FC 51 tomorrow night and both fighters made weight today. The former tipped the scales at 48.4kgs while the latter was 47.9kgs.
Hee (19-8) is a UFC veteran who will be making the the second defence of her Road FC atomweight (48kgs) title. Judging from her comments there is some animosity between the two fighters ahead of tomorrow night’s headliner,
“I don’t want to talk about the fight or anything like that before I go to into the cage. Especially, I have a lot of feelings about the words that were said before. I hope Park Jung-Eun, who is next to me, grows up as a fighter with modesty and an honorable personality,” Hee said.
Road FC 51 is set for the Hilton Convention Centre and only one fighter missed weight. The Korean promotion does not take this transgression lightly and Hyun Joo Baek will automatically lose if her atomweight fight with Yoon Ha Hong goes the distance after coming in more than 2kgs over the limit.
