UFC 259: Amanda Nunes quickly submits overmatched Megan Anderson

LAS VEGAS — Amanda Nunes continued her dominance over women in the UFC, submitting a badly overmatched Megan Anderson with an armbar in just two minutes, three seconds Saturday in the co-main event of UFC 259 at Apex.

Nunes, widely considered the greatest female fighter of all-time in mixed martial arts, dominated from the start. She hit the significantly taller Anderson with a right hand on the chin about 10 seconds into the fight and it went downhill from there for the Aussie.

Anderson got tired of getting punched in the head and went for a half-hearted takedown attempt.
