The UFC will return this Saturday with a women’s flyweight matchup between Alexa Grasso and Viviane Araujo for UFC Vegas 62.
Grasso hopes to keep her winning streak intact when she faces Araujo. She has won three fights consecutively, with her last win against Joanne Wood via submission at UFC Columbus on Mar. 26.
Araujo is looking to get into the top five of the division with a win over Grasso this Saturday. Her last win was against Andrea Lee by unanimous decision at UFC Vegas 54 on May 14. She’s currently ranked sixth in the division, while Grasso is ranked fifth.

Both competitors are looking to become the next contender for the UFC Women’s Flyweight Championship. The UFC could want the division’s champion, Valentina Shevchenko, to defend the title against Talia Santos in a rematch next year. However, a strong performance from Grasso or Araujo might give the company another option if Santos cannot fight.
The co-main event will also feature the return of UFC veteran Cub Swanson as he faces Johnathan Martinez. Swanson will make his bantamweight debut, hoping to get a fresh start in a new weight class. Martinez aims to continue his three-fight win streak and spoil Swanson’s return.
