I've met old hippies on the beach of Indonesia that have heard of Star Wars, so I can only assume that you're fully aware that Amanda Lucas is the daughter of the creator of the sci-fi series that gave birth to the term 'midi-chlorians.' Aside from her first professional MMA bout in 2008, she's been undefeated in her endeavor into mixed martial arts and even holds the bling for DEEP women's open-weight championship that she won by beating Yumiko Hotta via keylock at DEEP: '57 Impact' at the Tokyo Dome City Hall. If you didn't reside in Japan, then it was impossible to watch the event live. We've been huge advocates of DEEP linking up with AXS TV to air their events live, regardless of if we have to shoot Red Bull into our veins to watch it at 4:00 am.
We caught up with Amanda Lucas to see how her career in DEEP was going and her on-going beef with Erin Toughill -- an issue that has garnered 0% of interest from her. Check it out below.
Thanks Bud... Killer watch...Happy New Years, hope this is the year Nick Gets the Belt!
Seems like a super chill chick... Gotta respect someone who has no reason Monetarily to be Prize Fighting but still does... She must really love to Scrap... Coulda taken the Rich Kid, Trust-fund way of life and just milked it, but she obviously has a passion for the sport and is in it solely for the Competition.
Lovetriscuit - Is it weird that I think she actually looks cute in the video?
Amanda is very pretty. Also just a great person. Got to spend a lot of time with her recently. This would be a good fight. But if rather see fight someone coming off a win or a legit contender. To stop all the nonsense.
