LAS VEGAS – Dana White has shut down the idea of a potential rematch between Amanda Nunes and Cris Cyborg.
Nunes (22-5 MMA, 15-2 UFC) knocked out Cyborg in just 51 seconds at UFC 232 to claim the featherweight title in December 2018 and ended Cyborg’s remarkable winning streak.
Cyborg (25-2 MMA, 5-0 BMMA) departed the UFC for Bellator one fight later, but continuously has campaigned for a rematch. After Nunes avenged her loss to Julianna Peña this past Saturday at UFC 277, many wonder who’s left for the UFC dual-champ. But White prefers to see Nunes in a trilogy bout with flyweight champion Valentina Shevchenko over a rematch with Bellator featherweight champ Cyborg.
