Bethe Correira is entering the octagon in December for the final time.

The 37-year-old revealed in an emotional Instagram post that she’ll be stepping into the octagon against Yanan Wu at UFC Fight Night: Hermansson vs. Till.

Only a fighter knows the time to stop and follow other paths... Only a fighter and their allies know to tell apart the lies from the truth from what the media puts out. Yes! This will be my last fight and it could not be at any event other than the one and only @UFC Countless lies have been told out there, but I remained centered! I know who I am and I know my story. I have a strong and daring personality that has been the essence of my career and has added many rilvaries that strengthened Women's MMA. What I leave behind me is my legacy of a fighter who has a bold posture, presentation and unique celebration style in the fighting world. A personality that makes many curious to know more about me. It's not by chance that #betheeffect is out there. Love me or hate me, in the end everybody wanted to stop to watch me fight. I reached Pay Per View record numbers that back then had not been reached for many years. I have fought the very best and I always made the news. I am certain that I have left my mark and now it's time to let a new generation arise. And I know that I have taught both good and bad lessons. My very last fight will be at the best in the whole world... Where I dreamed and seeked to fight. This December I will be in the UFC octagon. I will cherish every moment of it and I know I'll miss it! I'm incredibly thankful to the UFC for the recognition of my career and history, they have never denied me a request. #ForeverUFC #ForeverWomensMMA #teamcorreia #ufc 😍 Gratidão @wallidjfc @suzanacorreianeves @edelsonboxe por sempre lutar por mim.

Since joining the UFC in 2014, Correira has gotten big wins over fighters Jessamyn Duke, Shayna Baszler, and Jessica Eye. Following her UFC Bantamweight title loss to Ronda Rousey, the veteran had trouble climbing back up the division rankings and has managed to only win one fight within her last five. Still, Correira is entering the fight with a solid record of 11 wins, 5 losses, and 1 no contest.

Wu is also in need of a win as the bantamweight is coming off a loss to Mizuki Inoue at UFC Fight Night 157. Thus far, the UFC newcomer has managed to only beat one fighter in the promotion, which was Lauren Mueller at UFC Fight Night 141. However, Wu does own three victories in her last five fights. The bantamweight’s professional record currently stands at 11 wins and 3 losses.

UFC Fight Night: Hermansson vs. Till is set for Saturday, December 5 with the two middleweights headlining. The placement of the women’s bantamweight match-up is currently unknown.
