The only woman to miss weight on the main card was former Invicta title challenger and UFC veteran DeAnna Bennett (127.9), who moved up to flyweight after missing the strawweight limit on several occasions. Christina Marks, her opponent in the evening’s co-feature, weighed in at 125.2.
Invicta FC 28 will also feature an unaired amateur bout between Chrisoula Koukouvetakis (105.7) and Tracie Morris (106.6). Morris missed the atomweight limit, but as she is an unpaid amateur, is exempt from the 25 percent purse penalty.
