Resuming his MMA career, Fredy Serrano hopes to shine light on his social work with youth in Colombia

The former UFC fighter, who participated in the inaugural season of The Ultimate Fighter: Latin America, is getting ready to return to professional fighting. Serrano will be fighting in the main event of Empire MMA 1 against Brazil’s Joseph Vieira. The fight will be contested at flyweight and it will take place on May 19 at the Auditorio Mayor de Bogota in Bogota, Colombia.

“I’ve been inactive for more than a year following my exit from the UFC,” Serrano told MMA Fighting. “I’ve been recovering from a few injuries. I’ve been very injured with my knees and shoulders, but at this moment I feel good, and many people here in Colombia have been asking me to fight.
