Jessica Aguilar is returning to MMA competition.
The former WSOF champion and UFC and Bellator fighter is set to make a comeback July 31 at Rizin FF 37 in Japan at Saitama Super Arena near Tokyo. She’ll be part of a women’s an atomweight grand prix and she takes on former RIZIN champion Ayaka Hamasaki in the opening bout.
The news was announced by the promotion Thursday.
The winner of the tournament is set to win around $51,000 USD.
This will be Aguilar’s (20-9) first fight in almost two years. She most recently competed in November 2020, when she lost a split decision to former UFC fighter Danielle Taylor at XFC 43.
