Alexa Grasso Injured; Angela Hill Steps in to Face Stephanie Eggink at Invicta FC 16

Mexican strawweight prospect Alexa Grasso has suffered an undisclosed injury in training and has been forced to withdraw from a proposed clash with Stephanie Eggink at Invicta FC 16.

As a result, Angela Hill will replace Grasso and face Eggink on the March 11 card. The all-female promotion announced the change on Wednesday. Additionally, AmberLynn Orr has pulled out of a bantamweight clash with Kelly McGill; she will be replaced by Aspen Ladd.

Invicta 16 takes place at the Trinidad Pavilion at Tropicana Las Vegas and is headlined by an atomweight championship tilt between newly-crown titlist Ayaka Hamasaki and Amber Brown.
