Under the banner of Salina de la Renta’s Promociones Dorado, Janai Kai has issued an open challenge, daring any fighter to last a mere 5 minutes in the ring with the champ.
With a $5,000 reward on the line for the “survivor,” the stakes couldn’t be higher as Kai looks to reaffirm her status as the most dominant champion in the division’s history.
Since capturing the World Featherweight Championship at MLW Slaughterhouse in October, Janai Kai has been an unstoppable force, leaving a trail of destruction in her wake. Renowned for her world-class striking and feared knockout prowess, Kai has emerged as a vicious prize fighter, dispatching challengers with ruthless efficiency.
With challengers from as far as Japan, Kai has vanquished all comers, often by devastating tapouts or electrifying knockouts that have left audiences in awe of her sheer dominance.
As the countdown to Intimidation Games begins, all eyes will be on Janai Kai as she prepares to defend her title against any challenger brave enough to step into the ring with her. With the promise of a hefty cash reward hanging in the balance, the question remains: will there be anyone capable of lasting the full 5 minutes against the unstoppable force that is Janai Kai?
