Claudia Gadelha and Carla Esparza Battle for Strawweight Title at ‘Invicta 4’

00

A million dollars to the first reader who can tell me which weight class constitutes the strawweight division. Too late, it’s the 115-pounders.

How do I know? Because Claudia Gadelha (Pictured) and Carla Esparza will battle to become Invicta’s inaugural strawweight champion in the promotion’s fourth show.

A bantamweight tilt between Shayna Baszler and Alexis Davis serves as the co-featured attraction.

Invicta FC 4 takes place January 5th inside Memorial Hall in Kansas City, Kansas. No word on how the all-women’s mixed martial arts promotion plans on making the fights available for viewing.

Here is the event’s current roster:

Preliminary Card:

Tecia Torres vs. Paige VanZant

Emily Kagan vs. Rose Namajunas

Jodie Esquibel vs. Liz McCarthy
