The UFC held a special media day session on Tuesday in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil ahead of UFC 224, which takes place on May 12th inside Rio’s Jeunesse Arena. Headlining the event is a women’s bantamweight title fight between reigning champion Amanda Nunes and Raquel Pennington, and they ended proceedings with the first of many staredowns they’ll have over the next several weeks.
