Amanda Nunes dominated Irene Aldana from bell to bell to retain her bantamweight championship in the primary occasion of UFC 289 earlier than laying down her gloves — and each of her divisional titles — within the octagon as she introduced her retirement from the game of blended martial arts.
MMA Combating’s Mike Heck and Jed Meshew react to Nunes’ masterclass within the last struggle of her legendary profession, her legacy within the sport, and the place the ladies’s 135-pound division goes from right here. Moreover, they talk about Charles Oliveira’s first-round end of Beneil Dariush within the extremely anticipated co-main occasion, Dana White declaring Oliveira will doubtless face Islam Makhachev in a rematch for the light-weight title subsequent, Canadian fighters going 6-0 within the promotion’s return to Vancouver, which incorporates Mike Malott’s fast end of Adam Fugitt, and rather more.
