I think the Akano vs. Damm fight is going to be close. Akano is a submission specialist who's fight against Cyborg did her no justice as she could not compete with the size of her opponent. This fight is at a weight 10 pounds lighter. She is a very tough fighter and loves the armbar finish.

Damm is the brother of Rodrigo and brings solid striking and jiu-jitsu to the table. She is on a 10 fight win streak since losing to Rosi Sexton in 2006. Damm is the first female MMA fighter to fail a steroids test in the US.

I am going with Damm. I think she will have a slight size advantage and will look to keep the fight standing. Current best odds are 1.8

She is the smallest woman of the 4 by far

Yeah that pic does make Damm seem smaller than I expected. Sherdog has Damm and Akano listed as 5"4, Tate as 5"6 and Kujala as 5"5
