Saturday, July 30th (10:00 PM EST Main Card, 8:00 PM EST Prelims, 6:00 PM EST Early Prelims) Julianna Pena vs. Amanda Nunes WATCH - #1 Amanda Nunes was the unstoppable WMMA Goat. A titan of the sport whose talents towered large over her measly opponents. Opponents that never stood a fighting chance… or so we all thought. In hindsight, the downfall was obvious. It turns out that spending 2 years gallivanting around as a double champ of a fake women’s featherweight division and beating up on part-time fighters leads to some serious drop-off in skill. A drop-off large enough for the shallow depths of the women’s bantamweight division to catch up to you. Now with the realization that she is no longer in the prime of her career, can Nunes make the changes necessary to bounce back and reclaim her only real belt? Or will the champion Pena shock the world by once again proving that any woman that spends time fighting at 145 is easily beatable.
