Holly Holm is returning to the Octagon.
Damon Martin and Guilherme Cruz of MMA Fighting report that Holm vs. Yana Kunitskaya is joining the line-up of an upcoming UFC Fight Night, scheduled for March 25 at the AT&T Center in San Antonio, Texas. Kunitskaya confirmed the report on her social media.
“My Christmas gift arrived early,” wrote Kunitskaya on Twitter. “Thank you [UFC] for always giving me an opportunity to reach high. I couldn’t be more happy, top three opponent in my returning fight, sounds like a dream.”
The former UFC bantamweight champion has not fought since losing a split decision to Ketlen Vieira at UFC Vegas 55 this past May.
