Bellator MMA signs Darina Mazdyuk after beating 529-pound man

Just a few weeks after being catapulted to internet MMA fame/infamy, Russia’s Darina Mazdyuk (3-1) has signed with Bellator MMA. The report was confirmed to MMA Fighting.

The 28-year-old had built up a respectable record for someone with such a short career, having no amateur fights whatsoever. Her wins were all against opponents making their debuts, and her lone loss was to an opponent that was 1-0, just like she was at the time.

Of course, this she’ll come in to the major MMA scene with a series of expectations and a lot of questions regarding her skill and legitimacy.
