Jinh Yu Frey (7-3) is Invicta FC’s new atomweight title holder, though her win over Minna Grusander (6-2) didn’t come without a little controversy. Frey rallied after some early struggled and outpointed Grusander over the course of five rounds to claim the vacant belt in the headlining bout of today’s Invicta FC 30 event, which streamed live on UFC Fight Pass from Scottish Rite Temple in Kansas City, Mo. The two fighters engaged immediately at the start of the fight, with Grusander pushing forward and looking to work in the clinch, while Frey dealt well with the advances and found space to pull away and counter with her hands. Grusander was relentless with her efforts and did earn a few brief takedowns, though Frey popped immediately back to her feet each time. In the final minute, Grusander did finally drag the action to the canvas, and she was able to work herself into a position to isolate her opponent’s arm, though time ran out before she could truly capitalize.
