Norma Dumont wants UFC featherweight title shot, calls out Amanda Nunes for sitting on belt

LAS VEGAS – Norma Dumont thinks Amanda Nunes should defend her featherweight title or the division move on without her.

Dual champ Nunes (22-5 MMA, 15-2 UFC) hasn’t defended her featherweight title since submitting Megan Anderson in March 2021. She has since lost her bantamweight title to Julianna Peña then regained it in an immediate rematch.

With their series tied 1-1, Nunes and Peña will attempt to complete their trilogy in the UFC 289 headliner on June 10. But Dumont (9-2 MMA, 5-2 UFC), who defeated Karol Rosa in a featherweight bout this past Saturday at UFC Fight Night 222, is tired of waiting and is ready for her title shot.
