On Friday, Aug. 9, Invicta Fighting Championships hosted its 36th event from Memorial Hall in Kansas City, Kan.
In the night’s main event, the promotion’s vacant featherweight title was up for grabs as Minnesota fighters Pam Sorenson and Kaitlin Young collided. The 33-year-old Sorenson looked to rebound from a failed bid for Invicta gold against Felicia Spencer last year. Young recently returned from four years away from MMA competition and has reeled off three straight wins, including back-to-back stoppages inside the Invicta cage.
The co-main event featured former strawweight title challenger Janaisa Morandin, who took on former Bellator flyweight contender Emily Ducote. The Brazilian Morandin aimed to bounce back from a submission loss to then-champion Virna Jandiroba in her last outing. Oklahoma’s Ducote had spent the majority of her career competing as a flyweight, but made a successful return to 115 pounds in February of this year.
