Former Invicta FC strawweight champion Livinha Souza scored an important deal going into her UFC 259 clash with Amanda Lemos, which goes down Saturday night in Las Vegas.
Souza became the first sports athlete signed by Brazilian gaming team Furia, one of the world’s biggest eSports organizations. According to Souza’s team, the deal provides unlimited training opportunities for the UFC fighter, allowing her to choose any facility around the world as her camp at Furia’s expense.
Furia is sponsored by Nike, meaning Souza will receive Nike equipment to use during her camps for upcoming UFC fights.
