Julianna Pena wants to share the Octagon with Amanda Nunes<\/a> again.<\/p>\n

Back in Dec. 2021, Pena stunned the MMA world when she submitted Nunes to become the new UFC Women’s Bantamweight Champion. Their rematch played out far differently with “The Lioness” dominating a tough but clearly outmatched Pena. Nunes won the fight via unanimous decision to get the 135-pound gold back.<\/p>\n

Appearing on the UFC Vegas 59 post-fight show, Julianna Pena said she’s confident that with enough time to prepare, Nunes wouldn’t be able to touch her (h\/t MMAJunkie<\/a>).<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen someone has entirely revamped and completely switched their entire stance, and their entire fighting style because of me, I take that as a compliment, you know?\u201d Pe\u00f1a said on Saturday\u2019s UFC on ESPN 40 post-fight show. \u201cAnd I think that if you give me time to get ready for both stances of Amanda, she doesn\u2019t touch me next time. I\u2019m just really hoping that she heals up and that she\u2019s able to get back in there before the end of the year because I\u2019ll absolutely be ready for that trilogy fight.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Pena went on to say that she wouldn’t hesitate to take a trilogy fight with Nunes if offered.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m ready to go Round 8 right now, like, let\u2019s freakin\u2019 go. I\u2019m here, where you at Amanda? Amanda, seriously, where you at?\u201d Pe\u00f1a said. \u201cYou left your girl hanging out there. I showed up for Team Pe\u00f1a, she didn\u2019t show up for Team Nunes. I\u2019m here, I\u2019m ready to go Round 8.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

As of late, UFC President Dana White and Nunes have been more open to the idea<\/a> of a trilogy fight against reigning UFC Women’s Flyweight Champion Valentina Shevchenko.<\/p>\n

Whether or not the UFC will finally go through with the matchup remains to be seen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
