Last December at UFC 232, Amanda Nunes became the fourth fighter in the roster to simultaneously hold two title belts with a first-round knockout win over Cris Cyborg. But apparently, she is not planning to stick around at featherweight.

In a recent tweet she directed at Cyborg, Nunes made it clear that she is “done” at 145 pounds, but suggested Olympic gold medalist judoka Kayla Hararison as a possible matchup.

Sorry Cristiane but I’m done with 145. My Goal was to be a double champ. But, now I can help you build the division. I got someone for you @Judo_Kayla is a true 145er

In turn, Cyborg responded by stating that she is willing to move up to 155 pounds and make a fight with Harrison happen.
