Two-Division Champ Amanda Nunes Hopes to Defend Featherweight Belt Following UFC 245

Amanda Nunes isn’t interested in having a short run as a two-division champion.

Nunes become just the fourth fighter in UFC history to hold belts in two weight classes simultaneously when she defeated Cristiane Justino to claim featherweight gold at UFC 232 last December. Since then, Nunes defended the 135-pound title with a first-round stoppage of Holly Holm at UFC 239, and she will again put the bantamweight belt on the line against Germaine de Randamie at UFC 245 on Saturday.

After UFC 245, Nunes wants to defend her featherweight title again.
