Ketlen Vieira Bio

Ketlen Vieira is a Brazilian mixed martial artist from Manaus, Amazonas, known as “Fenômeno.” She turned professional in 2014 and made her UFC debut on October 1, 2016. A Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt and judo black belt, Vieira developed a grappling-centered foundation that has remained central to her MMA approach. Her UFC profile lists Nova União as her training camp and judo as her fighting style.

During her UFC tenure, Vieira earned notable victories over former champions Miesha Tate and Holly Holm, and she submitted Olympic silver medalist Sara McMann with an arm-triangle choke. Her final UFC appearance was a May 16, 2026 decision win over Jacqueline Cavalcanti; reporting later that month said she had departed the UFC roster. Vieira subsequently joined the PFL and challenged Cris Cyborg for the PFL Women’s Featherweight World Championship on August 22, 2026, losing by unanimous decision. She is therefore a current PFL fighter rather than a current UFC roster member as of September 13, 2026.
