UFC Vegas 43 goes down tonight (Sat. November 20, 2021) from Las Vegas, Nevada at the UFC Apex facility and we have the results. The world’s leading mixed martial arts (MMA) promotion compiled an excellent card for fight fans to enjoy.
It’s headlined by a meeting between Ketlen Vieira and Miesha Tate in a women’s bantamweight bout.
Vieira had gone 3-2 in her last five previous fights. She beat Sara McMann and Cat Zingano before getting knocked out by Irene Aldana. She rebounded with a decision win over Sijara Eubanks by decision, but got outpointed by Yana Kunitskaya in February 2021.
After going on a five-fight winning streak with wins over the likes of Jessica Eye and Holly Holm, the former UFC women’s bantamweight champion lost the title to Amanda Nunes at UFC 200 by submission then lost to Raquel Pennington at UFC 205 in November 2016. She retired and came back in July 2021 when she beat Marion Reneau by TKO.
The co-headliner will see a bout between Michael Chiesa and Sean Brady. Davey Grant vs. Adrian Yanee, Joanne Calderwood vs. Taila Santos and Rani Yahya vs. Kang Kyung-ho finishes out the main card.

Kicking off the UFC Vegas 43 lineup will be Luana Pinheiro competing against Sam Hughes in a strawweight bout. Pinheiro is 9-1 with seven consecutive wins. She earned her UFC contract last year with a victory on Dana White’s Contender Series over Stephanie Frausto with a first-round KO that you can peep in the video!
Adrian Yanez
Adrian Yanez KOs Victor Rodriguez
Adrian Yanez also earned his UFC contract last year on Dana White’s Contender Series. The 27-year-old is 14-3 as a professional and is considered one of the best boxers and prospects in the bantamweight division. In his promotional debut, he earned a head kick KO over Victor Rodriguez (pictured above). You can watch the KO in live motion in the video!
Davey Grant
Davey Grant Lands Big On Jonathan Martinez
Yanez will be facing England’s own “Dangerous” Davey Grant (11-5). Grant has won three of his last four fights. In one of these victories, Grant scored a KO victory over Jonathan Martinez at UFC Vegas 21 in March. You can relive that KO in the video!
Pat Sabatini
Pat Sabatini
Pat Sabatini (15-3) is 2-0 in the UFC and is currently enjoying a four-fight winning streak. In his most recent bout, Sabatini submitted Jamall Emmers via heel hook, which you can find in the video package. Sabatini’s bout against Tucker Lutz will be the featured preliminary bout tonight.
Sean Brady
28-year-old Sean Brady is one of the brightest prospects in the entire UFC. Brady is 4-0 in the promotion with an unblemished professional record of 14-0. Brady recently told MMA News that he expects to pick up the submission victory over Michael Chiesa tonight. If his prediction comes true, that would make for his third consecutive submission victory. You can catch one of those submissions in the video package.
Ketlen Vieira
Ketlen Vieira After Submitting Sara McMann
One half of the UFC Vegas 43 headliners, Ketlen Vieira, enters tonight’s event as the #7-ranked bantamweight. She holds victories over established names of WMMA Sara McMann and Cat Zingano. Vieira will look to add former UFC champion Miesha Tate to that list by the end of tonight. You can catch Vieira’s submission win over McMann in the video!
Michael Chiesa
Michael Chiesa
#6-ranked Michael Chiesa will have the opportunity to be the first man to defeat Sean Brady in tonight’s co-main event. Chiesa has confessed that he does not see any holes in Brady’s game whatsoever, but he’ll have to find one to be successful tonight. Since making the move to welterweight, Chiesa has gone 4-1 in the division, which includes a one-armed kimura over the legendary Carlos Condit. If you haven’t witnessed this must-see submission yet, you can do so in the video!
Terrance McKinney
Terrance McKinney revealed prior to tonight’s card that Michael Chiesa was a huge motivation for him to enter MMA, being that Chiesa was his high school wrestling coach! The two will be competing on the same card tonight. McKinney will be looking to follow up on his UFC debut, which was over in seven seconds! You can catch the full debut in the video package, but don’t blink!
Rani Yahya
Rani Yahya
A 10-year veteran of the UFC, Rani Yahya is well known for his submission skills. A mouthdropping 21 of Yahya’s 27 career victories have been submissions. This includes a patient and technically flawless arm-triangle choke over Ray Rodriguez in his most recent bout, which is included in the video package.
One of the most respected pioneers of women’s MMA, Miesha Tate is back in the main event tonight as she goes against Ketlen Vieira. Tate is planning for this bout to be the beginning of a historic comeback run that will see her re-capture the UFC bantamweight championship. In the video below, we relive the moment Tate won UFC gold when she submitted Holly Holm in 2016.

UFC Fight Fight Night: Vieira vs. Tate (UFC Vegas 43) comes to you live from the UFC APEX, and we’ve got you covered with the preview for tomorrow night’s event.
The main event will feature Miesha Tate looking to go 2-0 since her 2021 comeback when she takes on Ketlen Vieira. A win over Vieira would be Tate’s first win over a top-10 opponent since her return, coming off the heels of a TKO victory over Marion Reneau in July. Vieira believes Tate should have never retired at all and that she’s always had more to contribute to the sport as a competitor.
On the other hand, maybe it took this time away to return as the Miesha Tate 2.0 that was on display in July. Tate has made her plans clear: knock off Vieira, eventually earn a rematch against Amanda Nunes, and then grant a rematch to Holly Holm. In a dream world, those plans would include Ronda Rousey as well.
That may seem like a pipe dream, but then again, who would have thought at this time last year we’d be seeing Miesha Tate headlining a UFC card again? Here she is now, facing off with fellow headliner Ketlen Vieira:
Also on tap tomorrow we’ll see Michael Chiesa taking on Sean Brady. Many people are calling this the people’s main event of the card because of the caliber of a fight it is in addition to the hype surrounding the undefeated Brady. Chiesa himself has admitted that Brady has no noticeable holes in his game. For Brady’s part, he has already turned in his strong prediction of his own: a submission victory over one of the best grapplers in the division.
Tomorrow, we’ll see if those words ring true. For now, you can peep the face-off between these two co-main eventers below.

The Pulse of MMA: Fan Reactions To The Sport’s Biggest Stories
In this installment of The Pulse of MMA, we look at the raw, unfiltered reactions from MMA fans to UFC Vegas 43’s main event between Miesha Tate and Ketlen Viera.
Ketlen Viera vs. Miesha Tate
I think it’s reversed actually, odds artificially swung towards Vieira’s favor since Tate’s only just come back after being away for so many years — other than the close win against Zingano, Vieira hasn’t won against anyone nearly as good as Tate.
Ketlen Vieira missed weight last time out & appeared lethargic in the late minutes of a low volume, grappling heavy fight vs Yana Kunitskaya. Vieira faces Meisha Tate, who is coming off of a wrestling heavy win over 44 year-old Marion Reneau in her retirement fight. #UFCVegas43
Idk man, I feel like Vieira gets it done. 5 years younger than Tate, black belt in BJJ and Judo. Hard to say how good Tate still is when her return opponent was in her mid 40's and on a 4 fight losing streak
Brady/Chiesa and Tate/Vieira are both really close fights, I think it's nearly impossible to be confident in a winner in those fights. I also think about 90% of both of those fights will take place in the clinch/grappling/cage push
