Seven bouts added to Invicta FC 30, including featherweight co-main event

Kansas City, Mo. – Invicta Fighting Championships today announced the completed eight-fight card for Invicta FC 30, taking place at the historic Scottish Rite Temple in Kansas City, Mo., on Saturday, July 21.

In the main event, Jinh Yu Frey (6-3) gets her second crack at Invicta gold, taking on Finland’s Minna “Brutsku” Grusander (6-1) for the vacant atomweight championship.

Frey has won four of her last five inside the Invicta cage, the lone loss coming against former atomweight champion Ayaka Hamasaki via doctor’s stoppage. Grusander debuted at Invicta FC 28 in March, stopping Fernanda Priscila en route to her fourth straight victory.

With a main event showcasing Invicta’s fastest and most dynamic weight class, attention shifts in the co-main event to the roster’s most imposing and powerful finishers, as prospects Felicia “FeeNom” Spencer (4-0) and Helena “Pretty” Kolesnyk (5-1, 1 NC) clash at featherweight.

Spencer has managed to remain unbeaten as a professional, with all four wins on her résumé coming under the Invicta banner. Kolesnyk will attempt to bounce back after suffering defeat for the first time in her career last year at Invicta FC 24.
