Still the UFC’s women’s featherweight champion, Nunes is eager to get the 135-pound belt back – not just to regain her dual-champ status, but to get the fight back from Peña.
“Honestly, of course the belt is something that all of us chase,” Nunes said in an interview with ESPN. “At this point in my life, I just want to show up 100 percent how I want to be. So with the belt, without the belt, I just want to really, really prove I’m better than her.”
