At UFC on ESPN 16 last Saturday night, the two most recent challengers to Amanda Nunes’ bantamweight title put forth their best arguments for another shot at the pound-for-pound queen.
Of course, Holly Holm and Germaine de Randamie, both former champions in their own right, are no strangers in the Octagon. Holm, who took a lopsided unanimous decision over Irene Aldana in the main event of “UFC Fight Island 4,” won the bantamweight crown from Ronda Rousey in 2015 in one of the most memorable title upsets of all time, while de Randamie, who choked Julianna Pena out cold with a guillotine in their main card bout, defeated Holm for the featherweight title just over a year later.
