The card is a FUSION TV taping, airing on beIN SPORTS nationwide on cable and dish and in over 60 countries around the world.
The “Afro Punk” Trish Adora is marching into the 2300 Arena this Sunday on a collision course with destiny.
The Washington, DC native looks to debut by dethroning the most dominant athlete in the division to date: the reigning Women’s World Featherweight Champion Taya Valkyrie.
Six years of active duty in the Army and a 7-year wrestling career with tours of Ring of Honor and success on the northeast wrestling circuit, Adora has become one of the top fighters in the game. Now, she looks to use her ferocious lariat, called Lariat Tubman, to put down Valkyrie and claim the world title.
Colliding with a force of immense momentum, Taya Valkyrie has been a global trailblazing luchadora this year. Claiming gold in Mexico and stacking up wins around the world, Valkyrie won the Women’s World Featherweight Championship this past spring and has been unstoppable since.
Styles make fights. With the judo tossing, powerful and confident Adora be decorated in gold in her MLW debut?
Will Taya send another contender to loser’s lane?
