After shocking the world by finishing Amanda nunes and win the bantamweight belt (up to 61,2kg.) in UFC 269 last Saturday (11), Julianna Pena seems, in fact, to be focused on the rematch. In fact, in an interview with 'MMA Junkie', the Venezuelan closed the doors to a fight against Kayla harrison, who negotiates a contract with the organization after leaving the PFL.

“I think she [Kayla harrison] is the smallest training partner in Amanda nunes. So if that's the case and I just beat Amanda, I don't really know what kind of position that would put her in. But she's been struggling in the B leagues, you know? And I'm fighting in the UFC, at the top of the division in the biggest sports league, you know? So I don't really pay much attention to what she's doing. But now, if I'm going to talk about fights, Amanda is the only fight that I think makes sense to me. I want to give her this rematch,” said Peña.

PUBLICITY:

Julianna's idea, since wearing the belt, is to promote a rematch against the 'Lioness'. In an exclusive interview with SUPER FIGHTS, she expressed a desire to take some time off before defending her title for the first time. At 32 years old, she has a record of 12 positive results and four negative results.

Fatal change? Makhachev ignores warning and could end tragically at welterweight!
