Holly Holm vs. Megan Anderson promoted to UFC 225 main card, Alistair Overeem vs. Curtis Blaydes moved to prelims

Holly Holm and Megan Anderson will get to show off their skills on the UFC 225 main card after all.

A rare UFC women’s featherweight contest has been moved to the pay-per-view portion of the upcoming June 9 show at the United Center in Chicago, set to be headlined by a middleweight championship rematch between Robert Whittaker and Yoel Romero.

The Holm-Anderson bout was swapped with a heavyweight fight between Alistair Overeem and Curtis Blaydes, which will now become the featured preliminary bout of the evening.
