On December 29, the queen of the bantamweight division, Amanda Nunes, will move ten pounds north and try to make history when she faces featherweight champion Cris Cyborg in a highly-anticipated SuperFight. Will Nunes become the first woman to hold UFC titles in two divisions? If she does, add another entry to the list of defining moments below.
Amanda Nunes didn’t fall out of the sky and into the Octagon at UFC 200, where she took the women’s bantamweight title from Miesha Tate.
