There has been speculation for quite some time regarding when former UFC women’s bantamweight champion Holly Holm would be returning to the Octagon following her UFC 208 unanimous decision loss<\/a> to Germaine De Randamie in a failed bid for the inaugural featherweight title.<\/p>\n

This week, MMAFighting<\/a> confirmed reports that Holm is being targeted to return at June 17th’s ‘UFC Fight Night: Singapore’ event against Bethe Correia in a highly anticipated and very pivotal showdown.<\/p>\n

\"Holly<\/p>\n

Holm is currently in the midst of a 3-fight skid which has seen her drop three straight losses<\/a> in just eleven months, including a UFC 196 loss to Miesha Tate for the UFC women’s bantamweight championship. The 3-fight skid most recently saw Holm fight Germaine De Randamie in a highly anticipated showdown for the inaugural women’s featherweight championship in what proved to be a rather controversial affair that saw De Randamie land significant strikes on Holm after the bell sounded on two separate occasions.<\/a><\/p>\n

While Holm is currently riding a 3-fight skid, her rumored opponent, Bethe Correia, is coming off a draw in March to Marion Reneau. The draw came after a split decision win over Jessica Eye for Correia at UFC 203, who snapped a 2-fight skid with her win over Eye. <\/p>\n

Several other fights have been announced for the ‘UFC Fight Night: Singapore’ card as well, most notably the welterweight debut of Rafael dos Anjos, who will be stepping into the Octagon in the midst of a 2-fight skid at lightweight in hopes of returning to the win column as he faces welterweight veteran Tarec Saffiedine in a pivotal welterweight showdown for both men. <\/a><\/p>\n

\"Rafael<\/p>\n

BJPenn.com previously reported Holm’s potential involvement on the card, however initial reports indicated that Holm would be fighting Ji Yeon Kim on the card, however Holm reportedly declined the fight.<\/a><\/p>\n
