Despite these disadvantages, Yabushita was able to control the fight with her quickness and takedown skills, earning a unanimous decision victory and a spot in the final.[4][21][22] In the final, Dutch fighter Marloes Coenen defeated Yabushita by unanimous decision.[21][22] With her performance in the tournament, Yabushita and women's MMA became one of the hottest topics in Japanese fight sports.[4]
