UNCASVILLE, Conn. – After two years on the sidelines, Pam Sorenson returned Friday and shook off any cage rust she may have had.
Sorenson (9-3 MMA, 1-0 BMMA) took a split decision from Roberta Samad (5-2 MMA, 0-2 BMMA) in her promotional debut at Bellator 264 at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn. And while the back-and-forth fight wasn’t necessarily pretty, it was a big deal for Sorenson.
The last time Sorenson fought before Friday was at Invicta FC 36 in August 2019, when she won that promotion’s vacant women’s featherweight title against Kaitlin Young. And while she might not have a quick Bellator title shot on her mind at 145 pounds, she said she knows what she wants next on her way up the ladder.
Sorenson called out Arlene Blencowe after her win over Samad, talked about her long layoff and cage rust, her Bellator debut and more at her post-fight news conference. Check out the full video above.
