Ketlen Vieira

Fenomeno

Brazil

Drops decision in Salt Lake City
BantamweightUFC
October 5, 2024
Vieira lost to Kayla Harrison via unanimous decision (27-30, 27-30, 28-29) at UFC 307 on Saturday in Salt Lake City.
ANALYSIS
Now 33 years of age and entering with victories in three of her last four bouts, Vieira found herself as a +675 underdog, by far the largest on the card. She managed to hang in there on the feet, but was predictably overwhelmed whenever the fight got to the mat. There's a case to be made that a Round 2 Vieira elbow was the most significant blow of the entire bout, but Ketlen had zero chance of winning a decision given her ground struggles in both the first and third frames. A member of the UFC roster for more than eight years now, it's entirely possible we have already seen the best the Brazilian has to offer inside the octagon.

Taking on Harrison
BantamweightUFC
August 1, 2024
Vieira will take on Kayla Harrison in a bantamweight bout at UFC 307 in October, Damon Martin of MMAFighting.comreports.
ANALYSIS
Vieria will look for her second consecutive UFC victory and her fourth in five tries. She most recently defeated Pannie Kianzad via unanimous decision, but had a scheduled bout with Macy Chiasson cancelled. Her opponent Harrison has just one UFC fight under her belt, but Viera hasn't fought since July of 2023.

December 29, 2023
Vieira's scheduled fight against Macy Chiasson at UFC Vegas 84 was canceled Friday for unknown reasons, Damon Martin of MMAFighting.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Vieira defeated Pannie Kianzad in her most recent bout -- Vieira's third victory in her last four fights -- and she'll now have to wait a bit longer to potentially extend her hot streak.
Scheduled against Chiasson
BantamweightUFC
October 16, 2023
Vieira will compete against Macy Chiasson in a bantamweight fight during the UFC's first card of 2024 on Jan. 13, according to Guilherme Cruz of MMAFighting.com.
ANALYSIS
Vieira was on the UFC's first card in 2023 and will do the same in 2024. In 2023, she suffered a split-decision loss to Raquel Pennington but redeemed herself by easily handling Pannie Kianzad.
Easily handles Pannie Kianzad

July 22, 2023
Vieira defeated Pannie Kianzad via unanimous decision (29-28, 29-28, 29-28) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in London.
ANALYSIS
This was a lopsided fight that was nowhere near as close as the scorecards would lead you to believe. Vieira went to the takedown repeatedly, landing all three of her attempts (one in each round) for a whopping 10:49 worth of control time. Ketlen easily kept Kianzad pinned to the mat the majority of the first two rounds before Pannie was able to reverse position and make some minor headway in Round 3. It didn't matter, as the result was already locked up. Vieira needed a rebound performance following her controversial split decision loss to Raquel Pennington this past January, and she got it.

Vieira will face Pannie Kianzad in a bantamweight bout at UFC London on July 22, Guilherme Cruz of MMAFighting.com reports.
ANALYSIS
After back-to-back victories over titleholders (Holly Holm and Miesha Tate), Vieira suffered a disappointing loss to Raquel Pennington. Vieira will look to bounce back against Kianzad, who's won five of her past six UFC fights.
