Star Wars creator, George Lucas' daughter is a mixed martial arts champion

By champion I don't mean the combat repulsocraft employed by the Naboo security force during the invasion of Naboo. I mean the Women's DEEP Openweight Championship, which was up for grabs this past weekend in Tokyo.

Amanda Lucas has come a long way from going into Tosche Station to pick up power convertors for Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru. Young Lucas now finds herself on a three-fight submission victory streak under the DEEP banner. Her latest, being of the keylock variety over pyramid driver extraordinaire Yumiko Hotta, made her the very first DEEP Openweight Women's Champion.

What's next for the newly crowned champ? According to SI's Loretta Hunt, she'll be sticking around Japan to cheer on her teammate Jake Shields at this weekend's UFC 144 in Saitama.

Check out Lucas's impressive finish after the jump:
