Amanda Lucas (2-1-0), daughter of Star Wars and Indiana Jones creator George Lucas, continued her fledgling MMA career on Friday night, nabbing a comfortable submission victory over Hikaru Shinohara (6-8-0) at DEEP 55 at Korakuen Hall.
Like Han, Lucas shot first – rushing the under-sized Shinohara with strikes before clinching and securing a body lock takedown into side control. From there, Lucas was able to utilize her significant strength advantage and move into mount where she blasted strikes upon her hapless opponent. For several minutes Lucas sought the finish with her fists but Shinohara was good enough to just avoid being stopped. As the opening round approached it’s conclusion Lucas switched tactics, first looking for the hammerlock from mount before settling for an armbar at 4.37 in the first round.
