Invicta on AXS to debut in May, two title fights scheduled

After spending some years streaming via UFC Fight Pass, Invicta will now be available on AXS TV as part of a new distribution partnership. And now, we’ve got more news regarding the organization’s television debut.

As per MMAJunkie, a source informed them that the all-women’s organization is set to return on May 21st in an event featuring two title fights. Atomweight champ Alesha Zappitella (8-2) will be defending her title against Jessica Delboni (10-2), while the main event is scheduled to be Karina Rodriguez (8-4) vs Brazil’s Daiana Torquato (10-3) for the vacant flyweight belt.

The flyweight title had been held by Vanessa Porto prior to her departure for Bellator, so now it’s up for grabs between Rodriguez and Torquato.
