Media Amanda Nunes: "I'm going to stop Julianna Peña once and for all"

[Geniusss]

I know this is in Portguese but she was basically saying she is super excited for the first trilogy of her career and she said now she is going to finish Julianna Peña once and for all, since last time she said she wanted to go 5 rounds (yeah right) to show she was better than her everywhere so this time around she can finish Peña to end this and they won't see each other ever again

She also said she is not thinking about retirement, she said she loves this and that she openned an academy. She said she plans to continue defending her belt (she mentioned Aldana)



Do you guys think she is saying the truth? She didn't go for the finish last time? Can she stop Julianna?

I feel she gave Julianna everything she got and still couldn't finish her because Julianna is tough af, I don't this one being different

Oh there is one interview in English

Solid Analysis!

Even if she was holding back initially

there presumably comes a point in which she's going to get tired and not be able to dictate exactly when/what happens next.

I agree with your prediction, though!

Yea she'll probably win, but anyway, what's her Spanish like? Was it all Portuguese or did she at least sneak in some Peruvian slang? How was the accent?

"Once and for all"

Knowing Pena, even if she gets destroyed, she'll be on social media right after saying she's better than Nunes and she'll win a rematch

She has also said she was actually expecting to fight Aldana next so this trilogy is 100% a Dana idea...

Nah, I don't think so

 

[Ser das Trevas]

It didn't happen.

 

[oscerthegrouch]

didn't need it ..

 

[Objectively Correct]

well why didnt you then big boy? Pena has the only finish, all the haters cant change that fact

Pena does have the finish but that was more due to the fact Amanda had a rough weight cut and was already yo-yoing up and down in weight classes. We saw who the better fighter is when they had the rematch. Can't change that fact either.

Amanda delivered.

Pena is an asshole, and massive shit talker. She would never beat “recovered from Covid” Amanda.

In the rematch, she got dropped 5 times in the first two rounds. Sliced, and diced.

Amanda beat the piss out of her for 25 minutes.

The only damage she did was from a headbutt.
