UFC President Dana White on Amanda Nunes:
“Amanda Nunes has accomplished what nobody else has accomplished. It’s not just who she beat, but how she beat them. When you talk about Holly Holm, Valentina Shevchenko, Miesha Tate, Ronda Rousey, Cris Cyborg and potentially Germaine de Randamie (twice) – she is holding two belts at the same time, defending them both at the same time and cleaning out all of the former champions. One of the most feared fighters ever, Cris Cyborg, is actually the fastest knockout in women’s featherweight history. She knocked Cyborg out in 51 seconds. She is by far one of the greatest mixed martial artists of all time and definitely the greatest female fighter of all time.”
