Kickboxing career

Early career

Prior to making her professional debut, Sugawara competed as an amateur, during which time she won the 2017 K-1 All Japan B-Class tournament at 50 kg and the 2018 K-1 All Japan B-Class tournament at 45 kg.[1] This led to her being named the "Amateur Fighter of the Year" at 2018 K-1 awards.[2]

Sugawara made her professional debut against the more experienced, but winless, Satomi Toyoshima at Krush 97 on January 26, 2019.[3] She won the fight by unanimous decision, with two judges scoring the fight 30–26 in her favor, while the third judge awarded her a 29–28 scorecard.[4] Sugawara next faced the 2018 K-1 All Japan Amateur tournament winner Michiko Nobutani, who was making her professional debut, at K-1 KRUSH FIGHT 100 on April 19, 2019.[5] She suffered the first loss and the first stoppage loss of her professional career, as Nobutani won by a third-round knockout.

After suffering her first loss, Sugawara faced the unbeaten Chan Lee at K-1 KRUSH FIGHT 103 on July 21, 2019.[6] She won the fight by majority decision. Two judges scored the fight 30–29 and 30–28 for her, while the third judge scored the bout an even 29–29.[7] Sugawara next faced the one-time Krush Atomweight title challenger Shizuka at K-1 KRUSH FIGHT 109 on December 15, 2019.[8] She won the fight by unanimous decision, with scores of 30–28, 30–27 and 30–28.[9]

Krush Atomweight champion

Krush Atomweight tournament

On June 17, 2020, it was announced that a Krush atomweight tournament would be held to crown a new champion, as the title was left vacant after Miho Takanashi moved up in weight.[10] Sugawara faced Yu Fukuhara in the tournament semifinal, while the other bracket pitted Moe Takahashi against Chan Lee.[11] She won the semifinal bout, which was held at Krush 115 on July 21, 2021, by unanimous decision. Two juges scored the bout 30–28 in her favor, while the third judge scored the fight 30–27 for Sugawara.[12]

Sugawara faced Moe Takahashi in the tournament final, which was scheduled as the co-main event of Krush 119 on November 27, 2020.[13] She won the fight by a narrow unanimous decision. Two of the judges scored the fight 30–29 for Sugawara, while the third judge awarded her a 30–28 scorecard. Sugawara was warned for repeated headbutting in the second round, although no points were deducted.[14]

Title reign

Sugawara made her K-1 debut against the undefeated Nozomi Sigemura at K'Festa 4 Day 1 on March 21, 2021.[15] She won the fight by a dominant unanimous decision, with scores of 30–27, 30–26 and 30–27.[16]

Sugawara faced the four-time Shoot Boxing tournament winner Mio Tsumura at K-1 World GP 2020 in Osaka on May 29, 2021, in her second K-1 appearance.[17] She lost the fight by a close majority decision, with one judge scoring the fight as a 29–29 draw, while the remaining two judges scored it 30–29 for Tsumura.[18] Following the second loss of her professional career, the pair was booked to rematch at Krush 128 on August 21, 2021, with the Krush Atomweight title on the line.[19] Sugawara later withdrew from the bout, due to the COVID-19 protocols, as she came into contact with an infected person.[20] The fight was rescheduled for Krush 131 on November 20, 2021.[21] Sugawara retained her title by unanimous decision, with scores of 30–28, 30–28 and 29–28.[22]

Sugawara made her second title defense against Yu Fukuhara in the co-main event of Krush 134 on February 20, 2022. The bout was a rematch of their July 21, 2020 fight, which Sugawara won by unanimous decision.[23] She won the rematch in the same manner, with scores of 30–29, 30–28 and 30–27.[24]

K-1 Atomweight Grand Prix

On May 12, 2022, it was announced that a K-1 Atomweight Grand Prix would be held, which would crown the inaugural atomweight champion. Sugawara was booked to face the unbeated Kira Matsutani, while the other pairing saw Phayahong Ayothayafightgym face Mio Tsumura. The one-day four-women tournament was held at K-1: Ring of Venus on June 25, 2022, at the Yoyogi National Gymnasium in Tokyo, Japan.[25] She won the fight by majority decision, with two judges scoring the fight 30–29 in her favor, while the third judge scored the bout as a 30–30 draw.[26] Sugawara advanced to the tournament finals, where she faced Phayahong Ayothayafightgym. The fight was ruled a majority decision draw following the first three rounds, with two judges scoring the fight 30–30 and 29–29, while the third judge scored it 30–29 for Phayahong. Accordingly, an extension round was fought, after which Phayahong was awarded a split decision.[27]
