In a fight that turned into arguably the bloodiest in the promotion’s history, Julija Stoliarenko took a split decision from Lisa Verzosa to become Invicta FC’s new bantamweight champion. Stoliarenko (9-3-1) took a split decision at Invicta FC: Phoenix Series 3 from Verzosa (5-1), who was dealt her first pro loss – and also given two massive cuts on the forehead and under her left eye that bled profusely starting in the third round. Despite those cuts and what seemed to be a mostly dominant performance from the new champion, Verzosa won 49-46 from one judge. Stoliarenko had two other cards 48-46 and 49-46 to win the vacant belt.
