Invicta FC fighter Viviane Pereira was kicked out of Dragon Kombat when she informed team leader Marcos Batista she was expecting his baby. A year later, “Sucuri” is still struggling to resume her career.
A former UFC fighter currently under contract with Invicta FC, Pereira gave birth to Ravi in December 2020. But the father, her ex-coach Batista, was no longer in the picture.
Under a lot of stress while trying to raise a child as a Brazilian athlete with limited resources and no support during a pandemic, Pereira has created a crowdfunding campaign to raise $12,000 so she can make ends meet before she’s finally able to make money as a MMA fighter.
