Former UFC competitor Justine Kish has signed with Bellator MMA.
Kish will compete in the women’s flyweight division, with a debut date yet to be determined. The deal was initially reported by journalist Shakiel Mahjouri.
The 33-year-old North Carolina native initially competed in the UFC’s strawweight division, where she went 2-1, earning a notable win over Nina Nunes. She went 1-3 after transitioning to flyweight, with her lone victory coming against Lucie Pudilova at UFC Fight Night 166.
Kish parted ways with the promotion following a split-decision setback to Tracy Cortez at UFC on ESPN 22 this past April.
