According to MMAFighting’s Ariel Helwani, Holly Holm versus Ketlen Vieira is being targeted to headline the UFC’s May 21st event. The bout will be contested at bantamweight(135lbs). Location will be revealed at a later date.

This will be the first time we see Holly Holm back in the octagon since her dominating unanimous decision win over Irene Aldana back in October 2020. Holm was set to fight in October of 2021 against Norma Dumont. However, Holm was forced to withdraw due to an knee injury.

Ketlen Vieira on the other hand is coming into this fight with a impressive unanimous decision win over former bantamweight champion Miesha Tate back in November of 2021.
