Invicta FC 39: Frey vs Cummins 2 | Friday, February 7th, 8pm EST on UFC Fight Pass

  • The main event of Invicta FC 39 will be for the promotion’s atomweight title as champion Jinh Yu Frey will take on top contender Ashley Cummins in the second matchup between the two women. Having previously fought at Invicta FC 24, Frey took an unanimous decision over Cummins, so the challenger will have an opportunity to avenge her loss as well as win the Invicta FC atomweight title.
  • In the co-main event, a title eliminator bout will take place in the flyweight division. Pearl Gonzalez will look to get a title shot win she faces Miranda Maverick as the winner will have the opportunity to face Vanessa Porto who is the current flyweight champion.
  • Dana White’s Contender Series alum Mariya Agapova will face Daiana Torquato in a flyweight fight.
  • Newcomers Tina Pettigrew will make her Invicta FC debut against another woman making her debut, Monica Franco.
