Earning her crack at Nunes’ throne, another former Invicta FC titleholder, Anderson extended her winning spree to two fights via a first-round knockout win over Norma Dumont Viana at UFC Fight Night Norfolk in February. News of Nunes’ rescheduling against Anderson was first penned by ESPN MMA reporter, Brett Okamoto.

Arguably the most dominant and successful force in female mixed martial arts history, Bahia bruiser, Nunes has knocked back, stunning, eleven competitors on her current run. The reigning bantamweight and featherweight throne holder has scored career victories over the likes of Vanessa Porto, Julia Budd, Germaine de Randamie (x2), Shayna Baszler, Sara McMann, Valentina Shevchenko (x2), Ronda Rousey, Miesha Tate, Cris Cyborg, and Holly Holm.
