Ronda Rousey training partner and “Four Horsewomen” member Marina Shafir has signed with Invicta Fighting Championship.
The 26-year-old “Supernova from Moldova” compiled a 5-0 amateur mark from 2012 to 2014, finishing all of her opponents via first-round submission. Shafir made her professional debut in April 2014, tapping out Chandra Engel via armbar 1:57 into the first round at LOP “Chaos at the Casino 4.” Shafir suffered her first career defeat last August, when she was knocked out in 37 seconds by Amanda Bell at LOP “Chaos at the Casino 5.”
Shafir has gained recognition in recent months for training with Rousey alongside fellow “Four Horsewomen” stablemates Shayna Baszler and Jessamyn Duke.
