Following a 145-pound title loss to Germaine de Randamie at UFC 208, the former Albuquerque bantamweight champion will return to her native weight class.
According to MMAfighting.com, the UFC is eyeing a 135-pound match between Holly Holm and Brazil’s Bethe Correia in the main event of UFC Fight Night 111 in Singapore. Holm who is riding a three-fight losing streak in the UFC is now desperate for a win to help her regain momentum again inside the Octagon. Until she was the first to defeat Ronda Rousey at UFC 193, Holm was unstoppable in MMA.
Correia, 33, is highly recognized for defeating all of Rousey’s teammates in the past. She holds notable wins over Julie Kedzie, Jessamyn Duke, Shayna Baszler, and Jessica Eye. The Brazilian is coming off a draw against Marion Reneau in March.
UFC Fight Night 111 will take place on June 17 at the Singapore Indoor Stadium.
