Last December at UFC 232, Amanda Nunes became the fourth fighter in the roster to simultaneously hold two title belts with a first-round knockout win over Cris Cyborg. But apparently, she is not planning to stick around at featherweight.
In a recent tweet she directed at Cyborg, Nunes made it clear that she is “done” at 145 pounds, but suggested Olympic gold medalist judoka Kayla Hararison as a possible matchup.
In turn, Cyborg responded by stating that she is willing to move up to 155 pounds and make a fight with Harrison happen.
As for Nunes, she also stated that she is willing to fight former women’s bantamweight champion Holly Holm, a matchup that Holm herself is interested in. Nunes, who has also been actively making jokes on social media as of late, mentioned chasing her third world title, this time at 125 pounds.
“The Lioness” is currently on an eight fight win streak since 2015, which consists of three successful title defenses at bantamweight.
