Overrated! Amanda Nunes thinks Ronda Rousey was never that good to begin with

Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) women’s bantamweight champion Amanda Nunes promised her mixed martial arts (MMA) fans that she would destroy Ronda Rousey in the UFC 207 pay-per-view (PPV) main event, which took place last Friday night (Dec. 30, 2016) inside T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.

48 seconds later and “Rowdy” was being rescued by referee Herb Dean (video).

The victory was attained with such ease (numbers game?) that Nunes was left wondering what all the fuss was about. In fact, “Lioness” doesn’t understand why past opponents — from Miesha Tate to Sara McMann — came up short in the first place.
