The Brazilian confirms his favoritism, defends the bantamweight belt and leaves the octagons for good
End of an era! Saturday evening, 10, Amanda Nunes officially said goodbye to the octagons of the UFC. The Brazilian beat the Mexican Irene Aldana in the bantamweight fight (61 kg) at UFC 289, in Vancouver, Canada. Leona, as she is called, dominated the fight from start to finish and won by unanimous decision. After the announcement of the result, the double champion officially declared that she would retire.
“Double champion forever! Today, if you look it up, I tied with Anderson Silva in number of defensive belts. So today is the perfect night to retire and live happily ever after,” the Brazilian said after the fight. Afterwards, Amanda Nunes left her two featherweight and bantamweight belts on the octagon floor, as well as the gloves she wore in her farewell to the mode.
