Miesha Tate on Julianna Peña vs Amanda Nunes- Julianna Pena is riding on as the apex of the women’s bantamweight division as she grabbed the title from Amanda Nunes in UFC 269 via a rear neck choke in the second round. The loss has baffled Nunes’s career, and she is up to a rematch at UFC 277.
The Venezuelan vixen holds a record of 12 wins and 4 losses and stays as the division’s champion while THE LIONESS holds 21 wins and 5 losses.
Amanda Nunes is the women’s featherweight champion and was the former bantamweight champion. She dominated the two divisions until she fell victim to Pena’s submission.
Miesha Tate, who had suffered a major loss to Amanda Nunes in UFC 200, shared her experience of fighting the women’s double division champion.
Miesha Tate said,
“I think that before the last fight, Julianna knew she could win, and those around her knew she could win,” Tate told MMA Junkie. “I think the only difference is this fight, is now Amanda knows that Julie can win. And the rest of the world knows that Julie can win. Otherwise, nothing changes.”
“I’m sure Amanda is going to try to prepare differently,” Tate said. “I would assume she’s going to prepare to be better, but sometimes that poison of the mind, just knowing someone like Julie is going to be standing across the octagon from you, is just not easy to deal with. There’s a lot of pressure right now on Amanda and there’s none on Julie. It’ll be fun to watch this fight and I know that she can get it done it again.”
“Amanda is still the champ at 145,” Tate said. “So I say she goes up there to try to fill out that division.”
UFC 277 has high expectations as it’s at the forefront of apex women fighters on the planet.
