Rachael Ostovich returns to action tonight when she takes on Christine Ferea in the main event of Invicta FC 21. The event will air live on UFC Fight Pass.



Hawaiian beauty, Ostovich (3-2-0) made her pro debut back in 2014 and is already a standout prospect in the 125lb flyweight division. She’s currently 2-1 under the Invicta banner with victories over Evva Johnson and Ariel Bleck. Her sole Invicta FC loss comes to number ten ranked Andrea Lee, who also happens to be competing tonight. Ostovich previously went 6-0-0 as an amateur with victories over the likes of Monica Franca, Hannah Kampf and UFC star JJ Aldrich.

Ostovich told MMAWeekly that she is hopeful that Invicta FC will start booking her for more fights “One fight a year is not cutting it for me,” said Ostovich. “This year is definitely going to be different. I signed with new management. I believe they’re going to get me more than one fight this year. “I love Invicta and am very loyal to them these past three years that I’ve been signed with them, but I’ve only had three fights, so you can expect me to be a little bugged by that. I now 2017 is going to be different and I’m very optimistic about that.”

The 25-year-old is hoping for three fights this year “My goal is to stay busy this year and have at least three fights,” she said. “I want to get things rolling. I want to make this a career; staying active, being active, and of course keep winning and move on to the next one.”

She’s very confident she will walk away with the victory tonight “I think there are more ways for me to win than her,” Ostovich said of Ferea. “I feel confident with my stand-up, so if I want to stand, I’ll stand with her; if I want to take it to the ground, I feel confident that I can take it to the ground at any point in the match”. “I know she’s a tough fighter, but this is her MMA debut and to the Invicta stage; being the more experienced fighter MMA, I’ll have the edge.”

Invicta FC 21 takes place tonight on UFC Fight Pass from 1pm EST. The event will be headlined by an interim featherweight title bout between Charmaine Tweet and Megan Anderson.
