Invicta FC returned to action Wednesday for a seven-fight event featuring an atomweight title bout, and MMA Junkie provided a live stream and official results of the event.
Invicta FC 49 took place at Sugar Creek Casino in Hinton, Okla. In the main event, [autotag]Jessica Delboni[/autotag] sought to defend the atomweight title for the first time against [autotag]Jillian DeCoursey[/autotag]. However, the belt would change hands in the first round.
DeCoursey (6-3) met the aggression of Delboni (12-4) head on, and pulled off a beautiful reversal as her opponent attempted to bring the fight to the ground. DeCoursey found her way to Delboni’s back and locked in an incredibly tight rear-naked choke submission. Delboni fought it off as best she could, but was forced to tap in the closing seconds of the opening round.
Make it two first-round finishes in a row for the new champ DeCoursey, who entered on the heels of an opening-frame TKO stoppage of Lindsey VanZandt at Invicta FC 47 in May.
The co-main event saw the debuting Ketlen Souza (12-3) make it four straight wins by defeating Maiju Suotama(8-7) in a one-sided unanimous decision win in their flyweight contest.
