Ketlen Souza out of Invicta FC 46, Daiana Torquato to rematch Karina Rodriguez for flyweight title

The main event of Invicta FC 46 is now a flyweight title rematch.

Ketlen Souza (11-3) was scheduled to face Karina Rodriguez (9-4) for the Invicta flyweight title on March 9 at Memorial Hall in Kansas City, Kan., however, the Brazilian has been forced out of the contest, the promotion announced. The reason for the change was not disclosed.

The new main event of Invicta FC 46 will be a title fight rematch as Daiana Torquato (10-4) will be elevated from her originally-scheduled co-main bout to face Rodriguez for the second-straight time. The pair first met at Invicta on AXS TV in May 2021, where Rodriguez won via unanimous decision.

With the main event shuffle, Milana Dudieva (12-8) will now face Denise Gomes (4-1) in the new flyweight co-main event.

Invicta FC 46 will be simulcast on both MMA Junkie’s YouTube channel, as well as Invicta FC’s YouTube channel, in addition to live-streaming on MMA Junkie starting at 8 p.m. ET on March 9.

The updated Invicta FC card includes:

  • Karina Rodríguez vs. Daiana Torquato – for flyweight title
  • Milana Dudieva vs. Denise Gomes
  • Danielle Taylor vs. Liz Tracy
  • Kristina Williams vs. Flore Hani
