With Invicta FC 51 set to take place on Wednesday, January 18 and a double title fight feature, color commentator, UFC veteran, and women’s MMA pioneer Julie Kedzie joined MyMMANews to break it all down.
Spending the last 10 years calling the action in the Invicta FC booth, Julie Kedzie brings a unique perspective in her broadcast style. Speaking from experience of a women’s MMA fighter, getting to know each and every woman on the card and their personal stories that make them as special as they are, it’s an empowering listen each and every single time.
The main event of Invicta FC 51 sees reigning and defending bantamweight champion Taneisha Tennant will look to retain her title against veteran and UFC alum Talita Bernardo.
The second of the two title fights will come in the co-main event as the vacant flyweight title is on the line as Bellator MMA veteran Kristina Williams looks to extend her winning streak with the promotion to three, and add the title in the process. Williams will face Ketlen Souza who made her Invicta FC promotional debut back in September of 2022 at Invicta FC 49, where she picked up an unanimous decision victory over Maiju Suotama.
