Invicta FC, the all-female promotion, will return to Las Vegas for the first time since last July with Invicta FC 16 next month.
The card takes place March 11 from the Trinidad Pavilion at the Tropicana Las Vegas. The entire card streams live on UFC Fight Pass.
Headlining the night will be Invicta FC atomweight champion Ayaka Hamasaki, as she defends her title against Amber Brown. The 33-year-old Hamasaki (12-1) has won three straight since a 2013 loss to Claudia Gadelha, including her Invicta FC debut last year over Herica Tiburico.
The win vs. Tiburico, which was via split decision, netted Hamasaki the title. She owns four submission and two knockout wins to her credit.
Brown, the challenger, is 6-1 with four consecutive wins to her credit. That includes three straight with Invicta and the last two have been first round submissions.
With flyweight champion Barb Honchak, the only person to hold the title in Invicta, taking time off, the promotion has signed Vanessa Porto and Jennifer Maia to meet in an interim championship match. Porto (18-6) is on a three-fight win streak since a loss to Honchak for the belt three years ago, while Maia (9-4-1) has not fought since a 2014 defeat to DeAnna Bennett.
The rest of the card features Alexa Grasso vs. Stephanie Eggink, Irene Aldana vs. Jessamyn Duke, Roxanne Modafferi vs. Bennett, Tiburcio vs. Jinh Yu Frey, Andrea Lee vs. Sarah D’Alelio, Kelly McGill vs. Amberlynn Orr and Ashley Greenway vs. Sarah Click.

A twitter account bearing their name tweeted a link to a document containing tens of thousands of user names, passwords, and credit card numbers. However, other Anonymous members claimed this hack was not the work of the official group.
The hackers — whatever Internet faction they belonged to — targeted more than just the UFC, however. As the Daily Dotnoted, the leaks included Xbox Live, Sony’s Playstation Network, Twitch TV, Amazon, Walmart, and Hulu Plus.
We recommend you change your passwords as soon as possible, as well as check for any suspicious activity on the credit card you used to sign up for Fight Pass.
It’s unfortunate, but it a mass data leak from UFC Fight pass was inevitable. As Iain Kidd noted back in January, the UFC’s digital security measures were lax at best. And given that the UFC feuded with Anonymous briefly in 2012, it would’ve been a good idea to strengthen security measures. This incident was preventable, but it’s too late now. So all we can do is just hope for the best, and be careful about giving the UFC any of our information in the future.
You didn’t hear about Dana White’s latest announcement: An MMA-related Magic the Gathering set?
Well,there’s a reason you didn’t hear about it: It didn’t happen. Thankfully, one of our favorite past times is figuring out what products should needlessly be merged with our MMA obsession. A few days ago, we arrived at Magic the Gathering (MTG for short). We played the addictive card game back in high school. We wondered what a set of MTG that spans the entire MMA world might look like. The below cards–featuring the likes of Dana White, Conor McGregor, Greg Jackson, as well as several “MMA memes”–are the result of our mental meandering.
A few notes: We haven’t played Magic in about 10 years so some of the gameplay semantics might not be totally accurate. Also, some of the abilities are for the purposes of chiding MMA as only irreverent CagePotato can. All real photos in the cards come from Getty Images, save for the photo of “Minowaman” Ikuhisa Minowa, which comes from Sherdog. Another card’s image comes from a YouTube screen capture (you’ll know which one).
With that, here are the cards. We hope you enjoy them:
