“We were more than ready for this fight. Unfortunately, shit happens. Stay tuned for a new date. I tested positive for Covid-19”, wrote the 'Leoa', in her account on Instagram.

No UFC 265, Amanda would put her bantamweight title on the line for the seventh time. Considered by many to be the best fighter of all time, Nunes would face off against Peña, the underdog in the bookmakers and current number five in the category's ranking.

The clash against Julianna would mark the Bahian's second appearance of the season. In March, the Brazilian legend defended his featherweight title (up to 65,7kg) by running over Megan anderson.

Outside of the co-main fight, the star of the August 7th event ended up losing his second title fight. Now, the show will only feature Derrick Lewis e Cyryl Gane exchanging forces for the interim heavyweight title (up to 120,2kg.).
