Very impressive. She's consistent as hell too.
That said, both Amanda and Val don't exactly have the most qualitative wins/opponents but those are the circumstances.
Certainly not their fault, esp. since they never ducked as far as I remember.

Valentina's had an amazing career, but including male and female fighters in the same conversations is absurd on its face.

The GOAT got there first.
And didn’t get to fight Jessica Eye, Lauren Murphy, et al. In a brand new division.
Oh, and Amanda beat her twice.

Amanda is one of my favourite fighters along with Valentina and Joanna, but let's not pretend she didn't get any softballs. Tate was easily beaten by Pennington and got shit-kicked by Murphy when she thought 125 would be easier, and Megan & Felicia aren't exactly top level opponents either. Amanda has more big name wins, but the overall skill level of their opponents isn't much different.
