After making her professional debut in September of 2014, Katharina Lehner has made strides in her MMA career in short order. With a 1-0 record, she fought for her first championship title, and in her fifth fight defeated Judith Ruis for her second belt, this time under the Respect FC banner.
This got the attention of the crew over at Invicta FC, and her US debut ended with what was her first career TKO victory. She returned to Germany to pick up another win and now faces pioneer and Strikeforce/UFC vet Sarah Kaufman in early May for the Invicta bantamweight title.
