What a great woman and a career that was second to none. The belts are up for grabs now! Irene was probably thinking she’s only two fights away from a title fight again.

[@TCSports23]

Back to back fights with 50-43 scorecards when only 2 fights ever before that had such a score. Truly an all time great of the sport enjoy retirement Amanda you are simply too good for everyone else

Man what a legacy, it’s always so amazing when fighters retire at the top, going out with two belts is crazy

Dana white Was like... thats Great Lol😂😂

[@PeterGriffingigity]

The Co-Main Event should have been the Main Event. Aldana did not bring honor to Mexico by fighting the way Moreno, Grasso and Rodriguez did. Wasted a golden opportunity to show that she deserves to be elevated to stardom not just by winning but but by performing to the best of her ability. It's also the failure of her coaches to light her fire the way the corner of Leon Edwards did to finish Usman in their second fight. That being said All praise nunes.......true class

Maybe she was sick or something wrong with her

@nirogalactoid8398 obviously he's talking about the women's goat,because she's female. Not everyone has to say women's goat dumbazz.

Fighters can say they are the 🐐 or 🚢, but Amanda Nunez can truly say that retiring on top of the game double champ 🏆. Thank you for inspiring millions, and enjoy retirement :)

[@TheJokesterSCR]

The double champ status means nothing when the UFC has like 3 people in the 145lb division, and most of them usually fight 135 LOL! Dana had to protect her from a Cyborg rematch because he knew that she had gotten super lucky with that win. He gives ALL of his dominant champions immediate rematches. Sometimes he even turns it into a trilogy of fights. He hated Cyborg so he did everything possible to make sure it didn't happen. Amanda has been beaten soundly several times. Cyborg lost her very first fight, and once more to Nunes when she wasn't fighting smart. That fight should have been run back immediately. She's been dominating again ever since. Nunes got choked out 2 fights ago.
