Invicta FC is returning to MMA Junkie for its second event of 2022.
Invicta FC 46, which takes place March 9 will be simulcast on both MMA Junkie’s and Invicta FC’s YouTube channels, in addition to live-streaming on MMA Junkie starting at 8 p.m. ET. The event takes place at Police Athletic League in Kansas City, Kan.
“After a great event in January, we are thrilled to be working with MMA Junkie again for this upcoming card,” Invicta FC president Shannon Knapp said Wednesday in a statement. “They are supportive of our athletes and we are thankful to have them on board for another event.”
The promotion’s first event of the year, Invicta FC 45, live-streamed on MMA Junkie on Jan. 12. The event featured an atomweight title bout which saw Jessica Delboni defeat Alesha Zappitella in a dominant unanimous decision victory to become champion.
At Invicta FC 46, another exciting title fight headlines its March event as Mexico’s Karina Rodriguez puts her flyweight championship on the line against Ketlen Souza.
Rodriguez (9-4) claimed the vacant flyweight title by defeating Daiana Torquato via unanimous decision at Invicta on AXS TV in May 2021 to make history as the first Mexico-born champion in the promotion’s history.
Souza (11-3) will make her Invicta debut in a title bout riding hot on a three-fight win streak. In 2021, the Brazilian won three fights in less than three months’ time and will look to make a big splash with an immediate title shot.
The full lineup of Invicta FC 46 includes:
- Karina Rodríguez vs. Ketlen Souza – for flyweight title
- Daiana Torquato vs. Milana Dudieva
- Danielle Taylor vs. Liz Tracy
- Kristina Williams vs. Flore Hani
- Paulina Granados vs. Monique Adriane
