Why does she keep getting title fights? I don’t get it. Has any male fighter gotten this many gifted title shots?
 
She wears tiny shorts and rightfully so!

The brackish chumwater of WMMA affords the above-mediocre fighter a wealth of opportunities.
 
Casuals know she killed Ronda so she became a 'draw'

Also WMMA is thin as fuck
 
because they don't have any other names in WMMA who Nunes hasn't already beaten. WMMA is shallow.
 
She went 5 rounds with Cyborg and won the first two rounds and almost stole the 5th

She got robbed against De Randamie in a big way and should have won the belt.

She's marketable and popular and Nunes has smashed everyone else.

And she has a pretty decent chance of winning.
 
I don't get it either. Her last 2 wins (and only wins since Ronda) were over absolute bums.

The refereeing and judging in the de randemie fight was a total joke. One of those late strikes could be forgiven but GDR did it twice and one of them was extremely egregious if I remember correctly. Holly should have been given the belt when she took the cyborg fight after GDR turned it down. People talk about how fighter x is scared of fighter y but GDR was genuinely terrified of cyborg while holly will throw down with anyone
 
The division probably doesn’t even have many worthy challengers for a title shot. Even Raquel Pennington got a title shot ffs
 
Loses 2 in a row at 135 then gets a shot at the 145lb belt. Loses that fight and wins her next fight at 135 to get another shot at the 145lb belt. She loses that fight as well then wins a fight at 145 to get a shot at the 135lb belt... Sad state of WMMA I guess. The funny thing is that she has a much better chance than Eye had against Shevchenko.
 
Meh she ended the Rhonda era that alone justifies her getting a title shot every fight imo
 
Because her fights with Ronda and Miesha both did over 1 million ppv buys. (UFC 196 obviously had Conor-Nate as the main)

She should be queen-d or knighted,,,,,She completely destroyed Honda and ran a good competition against Cyborg? You....You’re the one that’s mediocre if not less
 
Frankie Edgar called wants another title fight
 
Nunes has pretty much beat everyone else with a name in WMMA. The ones she hasn't beat fight at 125.
