According to Dana White, Amanda Nunes’ decision to pull out of her title defense at UFC 213 was more about what was going on in her head than anything else.
“After the [early] weigh-ins she made weight. Leading up to the ceremonial weigh ins I got a call she wasn’t feeling well. It was questionable whether she was going to show up,” White said at the post-fight press conference. “She does them, she was good. This morning, I hear she’s not feeling well again and she’s probably not gonna fight. I asked the doctor’s what’s wrong, she was medically cleared, they found nothing wrong with her.
