How to Watch Invicta 56

Jennifer Maia will suit up for Invicta Fighting Championships for the first time in nearly seven years when the former flyweight titleholder moves up to 135 pounds to do battle with Mayra Cantuaria in the Invicta 56 main event on Friday at the Stockyards Event Center in Denver. Meanwhile, Valesca Machado sets her sights on Yulia Ostroverkhova in the three-round strawweight co-headliner at 115 pounds.

Invicta 56 “Maia vs. Cantuaria”—which airs live on the CBS Sports Network at 9 p.m. ET/8 p.m. CT—also features a featherweight tilt pitting Kelly Jennifer Ottoni against Jackie Cataline and a flyweight affair matching Kate Bacik with Paula Cristina dos Santos Silva. The undercard streams live to Invicta’s YouTube and Facebook pages at 7 p.m. ET/6 p.m. CT, an atomweight clash between Flor Hernandez and Ana Palacios anchoring the preliminary festivities.
