UFC Confirms Nunes/Pennington Will Serve As The Main Event For UFC 224 in Rio

[Otto!]

Not so long ago Dana said that Nunes would never headline again. The clown show continues.

Tecia Torres and Nina Ansaroff also share the stage.

Two good fights, this would be a great Fight Night card but a mediocre PPV with a terrible main event. No one likes Nunes, she's weird, cringy and has man like features and Pennington in a main event on a PPV... This must be an early April Fool's joke. Nunes herself can't carry a main event on a PPV and matching her up against someone who doesn't sell a single PPV makes no sense.

UFC always bilking those foreign audiences

Theyve been selling us women headliners and putting the good scraps under them to force the sell/agenda.

Why dont they put together an all womens card, make it a PPV. See how many folks are pumped and tune in for that....

Great idea, maybe they could put on a two wmma title fight ppv double header and see how that would sell, lol.

That's always as valid as "We'll never let him fight in that division again" when a fighter misses weight several times and then suddenly he's allowed. Pfft. Everything the UFC does is so arbitrary.

What a shitty main event. gotta be one of the worst ever booked. sucks to be headlining a card with banger fights like Lyoto/Vitor, Jacare/Kelvin and Volkan/Glover. was really hoping RDA-Woodley would main event.
smh

They should really stop headlininig WMMA for UFC:Numbered events. This really cheapens it.
