Amanda Nunes is ready to make another statement next week.

The 28-year-old defends her title for the first time against Ronda Rousey at UFC 207.

Nunes is also the current UFC women’s bantamweight champion, who decimated former champion Miesha Tate to capture the UFC 135lb title in the main event of UFC 200.

Interestingly, she did it faster than Rousey managed against Tate on both occasions they met previously.

The Brazilian has a dangerous mix of powerful striking and top-drawer submission skills in her arsenal, and used both to devastating effect against Tate, destroying her with a powerful set of strikes as she beat her opponent down to the mat.
