Matches to Make After Invicta FC 22

Tonya Evinger can rest easy again.

The Invicta Fighting Championships bantamweight titleholder retained her title in decisive fashion, as she submitted Yana Kunitskaya with a rear-naked choke in the second round of their Invicta FC 22 main event on Saturday at the Scottish Rite Temple in Kansas City, Missouri. Kunitskaya -- who saw her Nov. 18 victory over Evinger changed to a no-contest due to referee error -- conceded defeat 4:32 into Round 2.

Evinger dodged her share of bullets, most of them in the form of sneaky submission attacks from the challenger.
