LAS VEGAS -- There would be no one-punch knockout or highlight-reel head kick here. Amanda Nunes had to really work for this one.
Nunes beat Germaine de Randamie by unanimous decision (49-44, 49-46, 49-45) at UFC 245 on Saturday night here at T-Mobile Arena. De Randamie gave Nunes fits on the feet and did some damage, showing the typically dominant knockout artist Nunes wasn't impervious. But Nunes was able to take de Randamie down time and time again and ground out a rather dominant decision victory either way.
"Tonight I proved that I'm ready for five rounds," Nunes said.
