Invicta FC bantamweight Aspen Ladd eyes UFC deal: ‘If they call, I’m going’

BAD MMA News — Tue, 31 Jan 2017 21:06:22 +0000

Filed under: Featured Videos , News , Radio Highlight , UFC , Videos After adding a fifth win to an undefeated pro run spent entirely in the Invicta FC cage, Aspen Ladd is ready to move on to the octagon. Fresh off a unanimous-decision win over Sijara Eubanks (2-2) earlier this month at Invicta FC 21, Ladd (5-0) said she wouldn’t hesitate to say yes should a spot on the UFC’s women’s bantamweight roster open. “My goal is to be in the UFC this year, so if they call, I’m going,” Ladd told MMAjunkie Radio. “My wish list is for my next fight to be in the UFC. It’s another step, and it’s another huge step, but for my entire career, from my first amateur fight, one little step at a time, keep on going. And I believe that is the next step now.” Ladd, who said she’d be open to taking on a short-notice assignment if that were the only option, is aware that a move to the UFC this early in her career would probably mean a slower climb up the 135-pound ranks – currently ruled by UFC champ Amanda Nunes.

Invicta FC 21 highlights: How do you choke your opponent unconscious and still lose?

BAD MMA News — Sun, 15 Jan 2017 13:27:22 +0000

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

Invicta FC 21 results: Megan Anderson captures interim 145-pound title, calls out future UFC champ

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.
