TJ De Santis is back with another edition of “Invicta FC Radio.” On this edition, De Santis is joined by Invicta FC 16 headliner Amber “The Bully” Brown, bantamweight Irene Aldana, president Shannon Knapp and matchmaker Julie Kedzie.

New Mexico’s Brown discusses getting the call and earning the shot at atomweight champion Ayaka Hamasaki. The Fit NHB product also talks the road to the title, what she will have to do to come out victorious, and what this bout means to her and her teammates.

Aldana makes her return to the Invicta FC cage for the first time following her title fight with Tonya Evinger. She discusses her journey back, why the Evinger bout is not indicative of her talent, and what she thinks about her opponent Jessamyn Duke. The Team Grasso trained fighter also talks about her fans and how she feels that Las Vegas will be filled with Mexican supporters.

President Shannon Knapp joins the program to discuss Invicta FC 16, the schedule for the first half of 2016, the future of the 125-pound division and what we can expect from the leader in women’s mixed martial arts.
