Invicta FC 23 results: Niedzwiedz remains perfect, Modafferi fantastic in TKO win

BAD MMA News — Sun, 21 May 2017 04:57:28 +0000

Polish prospect Agnieszka Niedzwiedz (10-0) remained undefeated, earning a hard-fought decision win over Vanessa Porto (18-8). The flyweight scrap headlined Friday’s Invicta FC 23 event, which took place at Scottish Rite Temple in Kansas City, Mo. The entire card streamed live on UFC Fight Pass. Porto found success on her feet early, setting the pace with her punches and leaving Niedzwiedz looking a bit uncomfortable. The action transitioned to the floor later in the frame, and Niedzwiedz threatened with a guillotine, but Porto patiently worked herself free. As the action returned to the feet, Niedzwiedz shot in with a beautifully quick takedown and then ended the round hunting for an anaconda choke that wouldn’t come before the bell

Filed under: Featured , News , Videos How do you get choked out in a fight and still end up winning it? Welcome to Saturday’s Invicta FC 21 event. The card, which streamed on UFC Fight Pass from Scottish Rite Temple in Kansas City, Mo., had plenty of memorable finishes ; the seven-bout lineup saw four knockouts and one submission finish. But it was the near-finish in the night’s second bout that left fans scratching their heads. In a strawweight clash, Celine Haga (10-14) choked out Amy Montenegro (8-2) just as their bout was coming to a conclusion, but she still lost the fight. Although Montenegro went asleep, the ref didn’t notice until the round was officially over

BAD MMA News — Sun, 15 Jan 2017 05:19:52 +0000

“Hey, Dana White,” newly-crowned Invicta FC interim featherweight champion Megan Anderson called right after yet another victorious (and violent) display. “You tell Holly (Holm) and Germaine (de Randamie) to keep my belt warm, because I’m (expletive) coming for it.” The callout for the yet-to-be-crowned UFC’s first women’s featherweight champ was not exactly out of place. After all, Anderson’s (8-2) clever use of microphone time followed yet another statement-making performance – this time against a game Charmaine Tweet (9-6) in Invicta FC 21’s headlining scrap. Invicta FC 21 took place at Scottish Rite Temple in Kansas City, Mo., and the entire card streamed live on UFC Fight Pass.
