The Story in 60 Seconds

Bella Mir is set to compete in two major athletic events across an 11-day span in October. She will represent the United States at the U23 Wrestling World Championships in Las Vegas from October 12 to 18, followed shortly by a return to mixed martial arts against Hope Chase at RAF 14 on October 23.

The wrestling assignment materialized after Mir retained her No. 2 position on the 2026-27 U.S. Senior National Team when a wrestle-off with Kennedy Blades did not occur. Mir, an NCAA women's wrestling champion holding a 4-1 MMA record, will look to rebound from an August loss to Alex Apodaca on Dana White's Contender Series.
