Sinead Kavanagh is all set to collide with Sara Collins in a featherweight bout on 23 September.
Posted 8 days agoIreland's Sinead Kavanagh is all set to collide with Australian Sara Collins in a featherweight bout on 23rd September at Bellator Dublin.
After a knee injury, Sinead Kavanagh (9-5) was sidelined for approximately one year, Kavanagh made a triumphant return at Bellator 291, as she earned a unanimous decision against Janay Harding in a rematch of a 2018 encounter.
It wasn’t always pretty, but the 37-year-old SBG Ireland product has now won four of her last five outings under the Bellator MMA banner.
While no one is clamoring to see Kavanagh in a rematch with Cristiane Justino — the Dublin native remains one of the top contenders in a perpetually shallow weight class.
Meanwhile, Sara Collins (4-0) announced her presence in impressive fashion at Bellator 293, as she submitted former Invicta FC titleholder Pam Sorenson with a first-round scarf hold armlock in her promotional debut.
It’s by far the most notable victory to date for the Australian judoka, whose first three professional opponents owned a combined three wins to their credit.
