Favorite Quotes from Amanda Nunes
Amanda Nunes just told Bleacher Report that she is planning to return to MMA in the winter, but is not sure about her plans in the year to come.
[Comment]: That’s probably because she’s too young to know what’s on the horizon for her.
I would like to defend my [lightweight] belt first because when I moved up, I left the division stalled. I think it makes sense that the next fight is against Holly Holm, the only ex-champion I haven’t faced. After, I think it would be cool to rematch Cyborg. And then I’ll stop.
