Viviane Araujo Set to Fight Alexis Davis in Flyweight Bout at UFC 240

Viviane Araujo made her Ultimate Fighting Championship debut two weight classes up at bantamweight at UFC 237, where she scored a knockout victory over Talita Bernardo.

However, she still won’t move back down to strawweight for her next Octagon appearance. Instead, she will compete at 125 pounds against Alexis Davis at UFC 240 in Edmonton on July 27. Both fighters confirmed the bout on social media following an initial report from Combate.
