Ferreira comes to the promotion off a loss, a controversial bout under the Pallas Athena Women’s Fighting Championship banner this past August.
Ferreira appealed the technical decision loss, accusing her opponent, Anastasia Nikolakakos of landing multiple illegal strikes. The Calgary Combative Sports Commission reviewed the bout but ultimately upheld their decision which resulted in Ferreira’s second pro loss.
Prior to that contest, Ferreira claimed the Nação Cyborg atomweight belt in October 2021 with a decision win over Maria Ribeiro.
