Raquel Canuto Returns at Invicta FC 42 on September 17

The Hawaii native, Canuto, returns to the cage after a two-year hiatus in which she last headlined the main event at Invicta FC 25 with Yana Kunitskaya for the bantamweight title. Following the unanimous decision defeat, Canuto was awarded her black belt by her then professor, Robert Drysdale.

Although Canuto has not been active in MMA for the last two years, that does not mean she has not been staying busy. Since Invicta FC 25, she has since won various IBJJF titles at black belt that include: Worlds silver medalist, Pans bronze medalist, and 2x No-Gi World Champion.
