After a three-year hiatus from the sport, women’s mixed martial arts pioneer Zoila Frausto will return to competition at Combate 31 on Friday night. She will enter the cage at the Save Mart Center in Fresno, California looking to reestablish her name in the industry and earn a lucrative long-term contract in the process.

After seven years and 18 fights, Zoila Frausto had enough of MMA. There was no single, specific reason why she grew tired of the sport she had turned into a career.
