Rossy Ogawa: Amarei’s rise held back by injuries and Marigold missteps
During a recent BBM Sports interview, Dream Star Fighting Marigold founder Rossy Ogawa discussed Kouki Amarei at length, praising the first-ever GHC Women’s Champion and outlining his high expectations for her future. Ogawa acknowledged Amarei’s recurring injury problems have been a major obstacle to her momentum in the ring.
Ogawa went further to suggest that Amarei’s stalled ascent may also reflect shortcomings within Marigold’s own approach to building her as a star, and said the promotion is taking steps to address those issues to better support her development. He emphasized his continued faith in Amarei’s talent and potential to reach a higher level once circumstances improve.
