Michael Bisping thinks Amanda Nunes vs. Julianna Peña trilogy unnecessary: ‘Nunes is the better fighter’

Michael Bisping doesn’t see a need for a third fight between Amanda Nunes and Julianna Pena.

Nunes (22-5 MMA, 15-2 UFC) avenged her upset submission loss to Peña (11-5 MMA, 7-3 UFC) from December 2021 by battering “The Venezuelan Vixen” for five rounds in this past Saturday’s UFC 277 main event to reclaim the bantamweight title.

Nunes said she could have finished the fight earlier, but decided to prove that that their first outing was a fluke. Regardless of whether or not Nunes could finish the tough Peña, Bisping thinks both fights proved the UFC dual-champ is better.
