Felice Herrig before UFC Fight Night 207: If I lose, ‘it’s the universe saying that it’s time to close this chapter’

Felice Herrig is back, but that doesn’t necessarily mean she’s going to stick around for long.

The strawweight veteran returns to MMA competition Saturday at UFC Fight Night 207 in Las Vegas, where she takes on former UFC title challenger Karolina Kowalkiewicz in a rematch. The bout marks Herrig’s first fight since August 2020 as the 37-year-old has been out of action because of a botched knee surgery that required a second procedure.

Now healthy, Herrig (14-9 MMA, 5-4 UFC) is excited to make a comeback, and she’s trying to ignore any pressure that may deter her performance.
