Invicta Fc returns to Las Vegas on March 11, tickets on sale Friday

Kansas City, Mo. – Two titles are up for grabs when the Trinidad Pavilion at Tropicana Las Vegas hosts Invicta FC’s return to Sin City on Friday, March 11.

In the headline bout of Invicta FC 16, set to stream live and exclusively via UFC FIGHT PASS at 8:30 p.m. EST / 5:30 p.m. PST, newly crowned atomweight champion Ayaka Hamasaki (12-1) defends her title for the first time against red-hot challenger Amber “The Bully” Brown (6-1). On a three-fight winning streak, Japan’s Hamasaki captured gold last July with a decision win over Herica Tiburcio at Invicta FC 13. Brown has won three of her last four fights by submission, the most recent coming via guillotine choke against Shino VanHoose at Invicta FC 15 in January.

Comprising the second leg of a championship doubleheader, an interim flyweight champion will be crowned when Brazilians Vanessa Porto (18-6) and Jennifer Maia (12-4-1) square off in the night’s co-headline bout. Both fighters come into the match-up riding three-fight winning streaks.
