Alexa Grasso and Viviane Araujo will meet in a high stakes flyweight matchup at UFC Vegas 62 on October 15.

Alexa Grasso is ranked No.5 in the flyweight division and is riding a three-fight win streak. In her most recent outing in March, the Mexican standout dispatched Joanne Wood with an impressive first-round rear-naked choke submission.

Prior to that victory, Grasso scored two consecutive unanimous decision wins. Her first win came over Ji Yeon Kim in August 2020 followed by another win over Maycee Barber in February 2021.

Meanwhile, Viviane Araujo will enter the bout on the back of a unanimous decision win over Andrea Lee in May earlier this year. With her latest win, she rebounded from her decision loss to Katlyn Chookagian in May 2021. The 35-year-old now has the opportunity to pick up her second straight win when she takes on the Mexican.

Both fighters will be aware of the opportunity this fight presents and will do everything in their power to produce a statement performance. A dominant showing from either of these ladies could vault the winner into another high-profile match before an ultimate title shot.
