Larissa Pacheco returned to competition with a dominant knockout victory over Julia Stasiuk at Karate Combat 61 in Miami.

The Brazilian fighter, out of action since October 2024, used a combination of strikes followed by a vicious elbow to secure the finish against Stasiuk. Pacheco, ranked among the top pound-for-pound fighters, demonstrated the impressive striking that previously earned her a win over UFC bantamweight champion Kayla Harrison. orlando-books.blog

This victory marks Pacheco's return after a loss to Cris Cyborg ended her 10-fight win streak. The 31-year-old recently parted ways with PFL but appears ready to make her mark in Karate Combat.
