This past weekend at UFC 259 Megan Anderson unsuccessfully challenged dual UFC champion Amanda Nunes for the UFC featherweight title. The Aussie was submitted by Nunes just past the two minute mark of the first round.
Since then Anderson has put out a longer statement addressing, and thanking, her fans.
In light of the news that came out yesterday, I wanted to address my fans, and say thank you for all the love and support you have sent me over the past few days.
Saturday night was fight number 6 of my 6 fight deal with the UFC. I had an amazing run with the promotion, culminating in a UFC world title fight. If you know me and the journey I have been on, just to reach the pinnacle of the sport is something I am incredibly proud of. I want to thank my team and everyone at the UFC for the past 3 years, it’s been amazing to perform for my fans on such a big stage.
