Invicta FC has inked deals with debuting fighters Luanna Alzuguir and Adriana Vukovich, the company announced Saturday. The promotion has yet to officially announce when they will make their professional debuts.

Alzuguir (0-0) competed in an amateur MMA bout back in October, defeating Brittney Cloudy in a flyweight bout (watch here).

The 32-year-old Brazilian, who trains at American Top Team alongside UFC champion Amanda Nunes, is a five-time jiu-jitsu world champion and a ADCC gold medalist. Alzuguir told MMA Fighting that she will fight at 125 pounds.

“I am excited to announce I will be taking the next step in my career as a professional mixed martial artist,” Alzuguir posted on her social media. “No better place than with Invicta FC.”

Vukovich (0-0) also won titles in many combat sports, from jiu-jitsu to boxing to muay Thai, before focusing on MMA.

On her Facebook page, Vukovich states that her record in amateur MMA stands at 6-0-1. The young Croatian talent currently trains at Tristar MMA.
