9. Rin Nakai
Rin Nakai is rumoured to be joining the UFC and debuting this September at a Fight Night event in Japan against Miesha Tate. Nakai is undefeated in her career, at 16-0-1, and is currently the "Queen of Pancrase" - having dominated the Japanese organization. She's known for two things: her extremely buff physique, and taking erotic, sometimes strange, photos and videos. Rin's practically a pin-up girl, and Pancrase has taken full advantage by promoting her sexuality almost more than her fights. The Japanese sometimes have what westerners might consider an odd sense of humour and taste - take, for example, a naked Rin being covered in beetles to face her fear of them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j45gg6rm7SE And then there's her training regimen, which is inspirational to say the least: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LpY8FnT5VOQ And for some reason, Pancrase wants you to know that she can bake a cake: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CeliHTtZoqo Oishii, ne? Keep an eye out for her weigh-in appearances also, as she's shown up dressed as a bunny girl before. As someone who spent a fair amount of time living in Japan, I have a soft spot for Japanese fighters, so I'm pulling for her to have a successful run in the UFC (though she's debuting against a favourite of mine, Miesha Tate). Either way, when it comes to Rin Nakai, kanojo wa totemo kawaii desu!
