About Our Ads Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement Katlyn Cerminara returned to competition at UFC Fight Night 291 after taking a hiatus to give birth to her first child, and came out the winner early against Mackenzie Stiller.
Cerminara (19-6 MMA, 12-6 UFC) got the first finish of her long promotional tenure and first since March 2016 when she hurt short notice newcomer Mackenzie Stiller (6-2 MA, 0-1 UFC) with strikes then poured it on en route to a TKO stoppage at the 4:46 mark of Round 1.

Prior to her layoff, Cerminara had lost back-to-back fights against Maycee Barber and Manon Fiorot. The 37-year-old got her hand raised for the first time since May 2022, and she said there's plenty more in the tank.
"'Blonde Fighter' 2.0," Cerminara said in her post-fight interview with Paul Felder. "I'm not done yet. This was a great warmup fight. But I'm ready for anyone in this division, and I'm still here."
