Bella Mir, daughter of former UFC champ Frank Mir, books second MMA fight for Dec. 11

Bella Mir is wasting no time returning to action for her sophomore MMA fight after making a successful debut in October.

Mir (1-0), the 17-year-old daughter of former UFC heavyweight champion Frank Mir, is slated to meet Alma Cespedes (0-2) in a women’s featherweight matchup at iKon Fighting Federation 4 this month, multiple people with knowledge of the situation told MMA Junkie on Friday.

iKon Fighting Federation 4 takes place Dec. 11 at the Marinaterra Hotel & Spa in San Carlos, Mexico. The card streams on UFC Fight Pass.

Mir got her official introduction to MMA at iKon Fighting Federation 2 on Oct. 22, where she earned a unanimous decision victory. She was cornered by her father, who served as her head coach for the bout.

She’ll get some more early career experience against Cespedes, who is winless over two career fights. She hasn’t competed since October 2019, when she lost in a strawweight fight.
