Forrest Molinari returns to MMA at RUF 61

International Wrestling standout Forrest Molinari is 1-0 as a professional in MMA after her Nov 2024 victory over Bridgid Chase on the BORROKA 1 event which took place in Las Vegas NV.  Returning Feb. 15th as the main event of RUF 61 Forrest Molinari will be facing the 2-1 Jaleen Robledo for the regional RUF Female Featherweight Championship.

a 3x Pan American wrestling Champion and a World Bronze Medalist Forrest Molinari is on the short list of blue chip prospects currently on the regional scene.  While fighting at 145 pounds in the Featherweight division, many expect Molinari can make the bantamweight 135lbs limit with a bit more time and experience in the sport of Mixed Martial Arts.

a training partner for Cris Cyborg’s most recent Larissa Pacheco PFL Superfight, Molinari will be the main event with a scheudled 14 total MMA fights, including 5 professional fights with Vinny Dias facing Giovanny Meza, Osama Awadaila against Jimmy Scully, Giguel Francisco X Julius Vegas, Branden Goodwin X Enrique Marte and Tony Hernandez X Alex Preissing as the other professional fights on the event.
