UFC 307 live blog: Ketlen Vieira vs. Kayla Harrison

This is the UFC 307 live blog for Ketlen Vieira vs. Kayla Harrison, the opening main card matchup this Saturday in Salt Lake City.

A staple of the bantamweight division since joining the UFC in 2016, Vieira started her promotional career with four straight wins before suffering her first career defeat to Irene Aldana. Since then it’s been a mixed bag for the Brazilian with high-profile wins over Holly Holm and Miesha Tate, and a loss to current champion Raquel Pennington. Now Vieira has the task of turning back Harrison to earn a second crack at the current champ.

Harrison, a two-time Olympic gold medalist judoka, is one of the most accomplished athletes to ever transition to MMA. After spending the first five years of her career in PFL where she was a two-time lightweight champion, Harrison finally moved over to the UFC this year where she immediately made a splash by stopping former bantamweight champion Holly Holm at UFC 300. Now Harrison is on the cusp of a title shot with a win over Vieira on Saturday.
