Invicta FC flyweight champion Karina Rodriguez has signed a multi-fight contract to compete for Bellator MMA.
Rodriguez recently confirmed the deal following an initial report from MMAjunkie.com. A date and opponent for Rodriguez’s promotional debut are currently unknown.
The 36-year-old Lobo Gym MMA representative has won four of her last five under the Invicta banner — with her lone defeat during that stretch coming against current Bellator talent Vanessa Porto.
Rodriguez claimed flyweight gold with a five-round verdict over Daiana Torquato at Invicta on AXS TV in May 2021 and retained the belt with a split-decision triumph in a rematch at Invicta FC 46 on March 9.
