Professional Fighters League continues to bolster the talent
pool in its women’s divisons.
Former
UFC bantamweight talent Ketlen
Vieira announced on Tuesday that she has signed with the PFL. A
debut date has yet to be determined, but it’s likely that Vieira
will compete at featherweight since the promotion doesn’t currently
have a 135-pound division.

„Today marks the beginning of a new chapter in my life, and I can
only thank God for pouring countless blessings into it!“ Vieira
wrote on Instagram. „Every day, I experience the truth of the verse
that says: “All things work together for the good of those who love
God.”
Vieira went 10-5 in the Octagon before being released from the UFC
earlier this year. “Fenomeno” last appeared at
UFC Fight Night 276, where she ended the eight-fight winning
streak of surging contender Jacqueline
Cavalcanti. Vieira owns other notable victories against the
likes of Holly Holm,
Miesha
Tate, Macy
Chiasson, Cat Zingano
and Sara
McMann.
