Report: Ketlen Vieira vs. Yana Kunitskaya set for UFC’s August 1st card

Another women’s bantamweight matchup is on tap for the UFC’s August 1st show.

According to MMA Junkie’s report, prospect Ketlen Vieira will take on Yana Kunitskaya at a location to be determined, as the promotion intends to have all of its July events at “Fight Island” in Abu Dhabi.

Undefeated up until her last bout, when she was knocked out cold by Irene Aldana, Ketlen Vieira (10-1) is now headed to her first fight in 2020. Before the defeat, the 28-year-old picked up four wins in the Octagon, against Kelly Faszholz, Ashlee Evans-Smith, and former title challengers Sara McMann and Cat Zingano.
