MyMMANews.com will have your UFC Vegas 55 results below.
It’s been a year and a half since UFC fans saw former women’s bantamweight champion Holly Holm compete inside the octagon.
Back-to-back injuries in 2021 forced Holm out of matchups against now champion Julianna Peña as well as one against Norma Dumont.
A unanimous decision win over Irene Aldana in October 2020 was the last time “The Preacher’s Daughter” fought for the UFC.
