Ketlen Vieira wants title shot against Amanda Nunes: ‘There’s no option than fight with me’

Amanda Nunes vs. Ketlen Vieira, anyone?

Vieira is ready to challenge Nunes after she defeated Julianna Peña for the bantamweight championship at UFC 277 this past Saturday. The ‘Lioness’ avenged a loss to the ‘Venezuelan Vixen’ at UFC 269, where she was submitted by second-round rear-naked choke in one of the greatest upsets in UFC history.

Nunes has a few options to consider for her next defense, but Vieira set her sights on the champion and proposed a fight against her in their native Brazil.

“Congratulations, Amanda!,” wrote Vieira. “You had a great fight yesterday and you showed you’re in a good shape!
