DALLAS – Julianna Pena will put her women’s bantamweight title on the line for the first time Saturday, and she’ll do it against the woman considered the best of all time.
Peña (11-4 MMA, 7-2 UFC) took the title from Amanda Nunes (21-5 MMA, 14-2 UFC) this past December with a second-round submission at UFC 269. At UFC 277, the two will run it back. Nunes is nearly a 3-1 favorite in the rematch at Tipico Sportsbook.
Thursday, Peña and Nunes faced off verbally at the UFC 277 pre-fight news conference in Dallas. Then they faced off physically with a staredown ahead of Friday’s weigh-ins and Saturday’s main event.
UFC 277 takes place Saturday at American Airlines Center in Dallas. The main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on ABC/ESPN and early prelims on ESPN+.
