‘No chance of winning’ - Dumont doesn’t want UFC title shot against Amanda Nunes

Featherweight contender Norma Dumont does not feel ready to take on champion Amanda Nunes, despite having defeated a former title challenger in her last outing. Although a split decision win over Felicia Spencer at UFC Vegas 27 does feel nice, the Brazilian knows she still has to acquire more experience in the Octagon before she can face the ‘Lioness’.

In an interview with Ag Fight, Dumont pointed how even Spencer herself was not ready to challenge for Nunes’ belt when she did, a mistake Norma does not intend to imitate. No matter how many matches it may take, the rising contender will not accept a crack at the belt until she feels ready for it.
