UFC Vegas 55 Holm Vs Vieira: Date, Fight Time, Weigh-Ins, Odds, And Live Stream

MMA is set to light up this weekend with the heavily promoted back-to-back events in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA. UFC Vegas 55 takes place this Saturday, May 21st, 2022, at UFC Apex Center. After a surprising and a bit tragic Rakic vs Blachowicz card, where the all-time Serbian mixed martial artist hurt his knee despite being up on the scorecards in the third, it’s time to enjoy another lovely night of fights. 

The former 135-pound champ Holly Holm (14-5) is back inside the Octagon after a 19-month layoff, and her belt hunt kicks off again. The Jackson-Wink star is a perfect example of a fighter who successfully changed her fighting style. 

She joined the famous Albuquerque-based gym as a kickboxer, but now she rocks in every single aspect of the game. She’s a hard worker who became a legend after a brutal KO of Ronda Rousey at UFC 193 and winning the bantamweight strap. Even in her 40s, Holly is a very dangerous contender with top-notch fight IQ. 

Ketlen Vieira (14-2) is a BJJ black belt, but her stand-up game improved significantly in the last few years. She’s dangerous in the clinch and her cardio is outstanding. Vieira holds notable victories over Miesha Tate, Sijara Eubanks, Sarah McMann, and many other high-level fighters.
