A women’s flyweight fight between former title contender Katlyn Chookagian and Viviane Araujo is currently in the works for an upcoming UFC card on May 15.
Multiple people with knowledge of the matchup confirmed to MMA Fighting on Wednesday that verbal agreements are in place for the fight, though contracts have not been issued or signed at this time. ESPN initially reported the contest.
A constant threat since moving to 125 pounds, Chookagian looks to build on one of her strongest showings to date when she earned a unanimous decision over Cynthia Calvillo at UFC 255 this past November.
