Dana White has said Amanda Nunes wants to rematch Cris Cyborg after her fight with Holly Holm at UFC 239.

Despite decisively winning their first fight last year at UFC 232, UFC president Dana White has stated Amanda Nunes wants to rematch Cris Cyborg.

Nunes crushed Cyborg’s 13-year unbeaten run in just 51 seconds at UFC 232 last year, knocking out Cyborg to win the UFC featherweight title on the night. Although Cyborg clearly stated her hopes of getting a rematch, the UFC booked Nunes to defend her bantamweight title against Holly Holm at UFC 239 next month.

Speaking at the UFC 238 post-fight press conference, White said that Nunes is also very keen for a rematch with Cyborg.
