Her English is getting better. I wish her the best on her upcoming title fight.

[@marniecarter4058]

That choke was perfect. I'd love to see her fight for the belt.

[@queenninja2141]

I agree!

[@SaraMightyX3]

Me Too

[@JRF1004]

I hope she becomes champ she’s the only one that is actually talented and hasn’t been smashed by Nunes

[@SaraMightyX3]

Sadly True

[@jasonmansell5469]

Yep she deserves it

[@The_Isaiahnator]

She's so funny without even trying to be. She can use that charisma to her advantage.

[@langtryvlogme]

From being depressed to conducting herself as a queen, truly inspirational for those of us who struggle with depression.

[@matrix35]

Mayra has that star quality. Hope she gets the title shot and finishes the delusional Pena!

[@NoahCanFB]

Not gonna be surprised when she *CHOKES* out Pena, too. Pena has sloppy hands and wades forward with her eyes closed, swinging hooks. Mayra will stun/drop her and spin around for a RNC. Easy title win.

[@Jazzhop101]

I agree 💯

[@TanWam]

Hope to christ that happens

[@Sir1626]

that's what people said when Peña fought Nunes the first time and she shocked the world

Beautiful story.

Why is grandma holm not getting roasted all over the net? She fights scared as Mayra said preflight.. poor striker for a boxer, just holds against the cage to stall and win rounds. Mayra will be a great champ !

This kid might become the champ next, which is good for her. But the division is garbage, so it's nice that she would get the belt with ease.

[@leldnguyen2403]

then again anyone in the top 10 would smash pena for five rounds. pena is rubbish. she got a fluke in the first fight against amanda, that's all. her record are terrible and so are her skills. pena's tough, i give her that, ut using your face to block shots is not a good tactic.

[@matrix35]

You are a little insecure human with that comment!

[@Steven-jh3wh]

The fact that she thinks she’s just gonna push in front of Pennington is frustrating, and the fact that she thinks she’s gonna smash Peña as if Nunes didn’t spend 5 rounds getting smashed BY Peña is laughable. Nunes left that cage on crutches looking like Frankensteins wife because of the well deserved beating Julianna gave her. This girls gonna end up leaving in a box. Peña’s gonna kill her. 😂

[@gabrielszarose5640]

Frankensteins Wife LOL! that's the exact description for someone who claims to have dominated Pena for 5 rounds sure got banged up facing the Vixen, she could'nt finish Julianna either Nunes tried a couple of times for a sub.+ K.O. but no go, so she had to take her to the canvas because the knockdowns weren't working + in the end could only revert to the points win, they had to lift Nunes + carry her to do her post promo.
