Amanda Nunes to Megan Anderson: “We all know [the 145 lbs] division doesn’t exist”

BlackIronBadger · 2019-01-17T19:04:45+00:00

Amanda replying like she's on r/mma. Is she our girl?

wubbalubbadubdub45 · 2019-01-17T19:06:11+00:00

this is pretty much how the flyweight division will be after saturday

Imaykeepthisone · 2019-01-17T19:08:52+00:00

Exactly. Nunes closed that division in under a minute.

liquidzr0 · 2019-01-17T19:08:39+00:00

That's why I like Nunes. She keeps it real

2019-01-17T19:06:05+00:00

You know dis

2019-01-17T19:34:45+00:00

Her troll game is fucking strong.

Tangerine_Speedos · 2019-01-17T19:40:53+00:00

Isn’t this kind of a weird thing to say about the title she just won? She’s not wrong tho

themilkman42069 · 2019-01-17T19:10:20+00:00

they never should have created the division.

never understood the "if you build it they will come" defense people had as well. They did build it, they started promoting wmma with 145 cause Gina couldn't make 135. No one came except Cyborg.

seymourbuttes91 · 2019-01-17T19:28:18+00:00

It's gonna be near impossible to staff a division like 145 WMMA at the highest level. There just simply aren't enough women that big and skilled.

Usadaisajoke · 2019-01-17T20:06:24+00:00

What has Megan done to deserve a title shot, regardless if this is a real division or not? She hasn't done anything, hasn't beat anyone (though not exactly her fault).

skinnygirlsodomizer · 2019-01-17T20:11:26+00:00

Megan is hilarious. She gets manhandled by holly holm, then cuts zingano with the toenail of death, and she wants to hop into a title fight

chunkSalsa · 2019-01-17T20:01:07+00:00

The destruction level of this lass is top quality.

Flumping · 2019-01-17T19:10:03+00:00

I don't think cyborg deserves an immediate rematch, Nunes won pretty decisively and cyborgs defence streak was just over sized 135ers who didn't deserve to be anywhere near the anyway.

tokidoki86 · 2019-01-17T20:18:42+00:00

Completely true, it was always Cyborg, Megan and bloated 135-er brave enough to try taking on Cyborg. Close the thing and send Cyborg to Japan.

ins0mnyteq · 2019-01-17T20:22:40+00:00

Double champ sloppy seconds. If they dont defend it were they ever really the double champ?, and in reality does it even matter?

I_Am_The_Mole · 2019-01-17T19:51:41+00:00

Im a Nunes fan but this wasn't necessary. How are you going to kick at Megan when she's just trying to create the only sensible fight in the division you just said you wouldn't come back to? Megan didn't even say anything questionable about Amanda.

Jizzturnip · 2019-01-17T20:27:28+00:00

Cold blooded

“Just to correct you, there was never no 145 lb division”

Amanda, probably

xnyr21 · 2019-01-17T22:41:21+00:00

KICK HER IN THE FUCKING EYE!

buffpriest · 2019-01-17T19:29:15+00:00

I really dont dig this.Cejudo us trying to keep his divisions fighters jobs/livelyhood alive. Meanwhile nunes is trying to unemploy an entire division. Just vacate the belt

2019-01-17T20:37:51+00:00

145 did it's job. The unbeatable Cyborg came to UFC and beat the piss out of a few cans. Made some people and herself some money. We all oooohhhd and awwwwd at how powerful and untouchable she is. She got defeated and now loses about half her selling influence. She can no longer headline ppvs as the A side. Finish her contract and as the great Gordon Ramsey says, SHUT IT DOWN! And piss off.

BinLadenBComin · 2019-01-17T19:13:18+00:00

Kinda feel bad for Megan here, she's a UFC caliber fighter that just can't fight at a lower weight class.

thekingofpie · 2019-01-17T20:30:51+00:00

if u get knocked out in the first minute or mauled like khabib mcgregor, do you rly deserve a rematch?

networking_noob · 2019-01-17T21:13:55+00:00

Close: Women's 145, Men's 125

Open: Men's 165, Men's 170 --> 175

Everybody knows it will happen, so why delay the inevitable?

MucusShotSwaGGins · 2019-01-17T21:57:05+00:00

So wholesome is one post then become a savage in another. Damn

Kadeslayer · 2019-01-18T01:18:13+00:00

Henry Cejudo coming for that belt lmao

leftey_ · 2019-01-18T05:54:30+00:00

amanda took their jerbs

R9J4B · 2019-01-17T19:09:10+00:00

So she's not the double champ? I was really happy when she won the belt but if she's had no intention of defending all this time then she shouldn't have fought for the title in the first place.

VegiXTV · 2019-01-17T20:16:50+00:00

Amanda's absolutely right. 145 isn't a real division. It was Steroid abusing Cyborg vs a bunch of 135's and now one of those 135's beat her.

2019-01-17T19:18:44+00:00

amanda says death to shallow division

raquetofsense · 2019-01-17T21:59:12+00:00

When the champ of a division says the division doesn't exist... What a turn of events for the UFC!

2019-01-17T22:14:09+00:00

The same people here claiming cyborg don't deserve a rematch are the same people who are crying about also not receiving a rematch with Conor 🤷

Billthebutchr · 2019-01-17T22:35:03+00:00

AbcdefghijkImnopqrs · 2019-01-17T23:12:02+00:00

Just fought in it...

Wierd flex but ok

Sullyville · 2019-01-17T23:30:09+00:00

truth bomb

SirRonaldofBurgundy · 2019-01-17T23:43:06+00:00

Amanda would walk through Megan at any weight.

FindYourFire · 2019-01-18T01:01:54+00:00

WME probably thinks it can make some cash marketing Megan though. They'll let Cyborg walk then have Megan fight some bum for the vacant belt. Would look bad as hell but clearly the UFC stopped giving a shit about maintaining the appearance of a legit sport a while ago.

danielwong95 · 2019-01-18T01:16:41+00:00

Honestly where does cyborg go from here? I think shes better off just beating up cans overseas

Deeaann · 2019-01-18T02:18:45+00:00

How's some of the replies on Twitter lmao. That division was for Cyborg only and people can't even comprehend it.

DustyRhodesGuy · 2019-01-18T02:33:13+00:00

Megan might not have earned her shot but I like to see her fight and I hope they don’t close the division

2019-01-18T02:49:04+00:00

I want to see a Cyborg Nunes rematch, I'm sure Cyborg can win if she doesn't engage in the brawl like that.

2019-01-18T03:58:02+00:00

Doesn't exist but imma keep the belt tho

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

AdministrativeUnion9 · 2019-01-18T06:46:11+00:00

Anderson would get absolutely wrecked

GuyWithTheStalker · 2019-01-18T06:49:18+00:00

Gawwwwd, damn she's awesome

Yetipits · 2019-01-18T07:02:48+00:00

“Well just to correct you, there was never no 145lbs division”

nut0003 · 2019-01-18T08:15:07+00:00

So is nunes not a double champ then? Wins the title, shows off the belt, and then completely dismisses it? I doubt she'd be saying that beforehand.

onceiwasnothing · 2019-01-18T10:52:30+00:00

Nunes with the truth

2019-01-18T11:16:30+00:00

Its kind of shady to run get a belt get called champ in another division then wait and wait and close it down. All for their next girl. It’s a company I get it but Jon is fighting quick I’m sure Nunes could have but didn’t want to deal with that weight I assume

TheNotoriousZoom · 2019-01-18T11:21:24+00:00

So,when we see Kayla in Ufc ? I would bet my non-existing house, it will be spring 2019 max. (not Holloway, of course)

Definitlyhuman · 2019-01-18T13:05:48+00:00

Damn, thats a pretty sick burn. Its funny because its true XD
