Kaitlin Young Now Faces Sarah Patterson at Invicta FC 32

Kansas City, Mo. — A last-minute change has impacted the lineup for Invicta Fighting Championships 32.

Frenchwoman Zarah Fairn Dos Santos (6-2) has been forced off the card due to visa issues and is out of her featherweight match-up with returning veteran Kaitlin Young (8-9-1). Stepping in on short notice will be newcomer Sarah Patterson (5-4) and the bout will now be contested as a 150-pound catchweight.

Young makes her return to the Invicta FC cage following a four-year absence. “The Striking Viking” has remained active in Muay Thai competition, capturing numerous titles around the globe. She returned to MMA in August, defeating Japan’s Reina Miura under the Rizin FF banner.

Patterson, who goes by the nickname “Primal,” may be new to Invicta FC, but the Iowa-based fighter has been competing since 2002. Among her opponents are women’s pioneers Jennifer Howe and Adrienna Jenkins. She also holds a submission win over Invicta veteran Tamikka Brents.
