The opponent is the first in the history of Brazil Absolute Fighting Champion (UFC) Amanda Nunez, a great athlete and world-class striker.
Ronda Rousey was holding her arms high, but the overall impression was that she didn’t even try to block even a single strike from Nunez. By the way, we should definitely pay tribute to the Brazilian girl as she seemed perfectly prepared for the battle. Having seized the initiative from the first seconds, she did not leave the ex-champion any chances to win.
