Bellator women’s flyweight champion Juliana Velasquez isn’t going anywhere. On Friday, a promotion official informed MMA Junkie that the recently crowned titleholder has signed a new multi-fight deal with the promotion. No additional terms of the deal were disclosed. Velasquez (11-0 MMA, 6-0 BMMA) won the championship in December when she defeated long-reigning 125-pound incumbent Ilima-Lei Macfarlane by unanimous decision. The Brazilian judo standout has competed as a professional in MMA since 2014. In 2017, Velasquez signed with Bellator and won her debut fight against Na Liang by armbar.
