Amanda Nunes’ departure from American Top Team had nothing to do with her most recent loss, she said.
The news came in wake of her shocking upset loss to Julianna Peña at UFC 269, and though she’ll get an opportunity to reclaim the women’s bantamweight title, she’ll be doing it with a different coaching staff.
Nunes (21-3, 14-3 UFC), who still holds the women’s featherweight title, will be opening her own gym and insists her split with her longtime American Top Team home was amicable.
