'TUF 30' winner Juliana Miller returns at UFC Des Moines vs. Ivana Petrovic
"TUF 30" winner Juliana Miller has her next fight on the books.
At UFC on ESPN 67, Miller (3-3 MMA, 1-2 UFC) will take on former ARES FC champion Ivana Petrovic (7-2 MMA, 1-2 UFC) in a women's flyweight bout. The event takes place May 3 at Wells Fargo Arena in Des Moines, Iowa.
Two people with knowledge of the matchup recently informed MMA Junkie of the booking but asked to remain anonymous since the promotion has yet to make an official announcement.
Miller lost back-to-back fights after she won "The Ultimate Fighter 30" final against Brogan Walker in 2022. Following a unanimous decision loss to Veronica Hardy, Miller was finished with strikes in the first round by Luana Santos. She has not competed since August 2023 due to injuries.
Petrovic lost her UFC debut to Luana Carolina via unanimous decision. She then bounced back with a submission of Liang Na before a split decision loss to Jamy-Lyn Horth.
