Should Amanda Nunes Defend Both UFC Titles? | Luke Thomas


American Top Team (ATT) head honcho Dan Lambert argued this week Amanda Nunes should be able to defend both the bantamweight title and the featherweight championship she grabbed by beating Cris Cyborg at UFC 232. In short, I agree, but the issue is not how thin women’s featherweight is. Rather, it’s about the number of times the UFC can rely on each weight class to rotate over title shot opportunities. You can give a legendary fighter like Nunes this opportunity, but it depends on how much you can rely on women’s flyweight, men’s flyweight and a potential 165-pound division to fill in the slack.
