This is the UFC 289 live blog for Amanda Nunes vs. Irene Aldana, the women’s bantamweight title fight on Saturday in Vancouver.
Widely considered the greatest female fighter of all-time, Amanda Nunes once again steps into the cage to defend her bantamweight title for a record-tying sixth time. After losing her belt to Julianna Peña in one of the biggest upsets of all-time, Nunes reclaimed the title last July, and now looks to start her second bantamweight title run. But at 35-years-old, and with no mountains left to climb in the sport, fans wonder if this will be the last time we’ll see Nunes in the cage, win or lose.
Currently on a two-fight win streak, Irene Aldana is finally gets her shot at a UFC title — and it couldn’t come at a better time. With three current Mexican UFC champions, Aldana is riding a wave of momentum from her home country that she hopes will help her realize her dreams by finishing the GOAT.
