Undefeated women’s featherweight prospect Talita Nogueira has inked an exclusive deal to join the Bellator fold, promotion officials announced on Thursday.
Nogueira (6-0), the 2013 Female Fighter of the Year at the Brazilian MMA Awards, was in discussions to join to the UFC in July but ultimately opted to sign with Bellator, bolstering the Viacom-led promotion’s renewed commitment to women’s MMA following moves to sign Marloes Coenen and Julia Budd under new president Scott Coker.
