There has never been a two division female UFC champion before and according to Nunes, it’s a two woman r🍷ace to see who makes UFC history first.

"I'm really glad that the UFC is embracing female MMA like that,” Nunes said to . “I think this women’s flyweight division will be a huge success. It'll give another chance to girls who have a hard time dropping to strawweight, so it'll be good for them to fight at 125. And now we'll see who makes history first as the first two-division champion, me or Joanna Jedrzejczyk.”

Jedrzejczyk recently defended her women’s strawweight title against Jessica Andrade at UFC 211 and has also made waves about competing for the newly created 🔜UFC Women’s Flyweight Title.
