Amanda Nunes (11-4) kommer senast ifrån en submissionvinst över Sara McMann (8-3) på UFC Fight Night 73 och Nunes coach, den forne WEC-fjäderviktsmästaren Mike Brown (26-9), är säker på att Nunes är reda att ta sig an Ronda Rousey (12-0).
Brown tycker att Nunes stand-up är mycket bättre än Rouseys.

”In my opinion, I think she is. I think her stand-up is light years ahead of Ronda’s,” sa Mike Brown på The MMA Hour. ”But obviously Ronda is super talented. The best. [Amanda] would have to use good footwork and score and move and try to stay off the ground, because Ronda is a phenom on the ground. But I don’t think Ronda’s stand-up is at Amanda’s level.”
Brown är väldigt imponerad utav Nunes och att hon fått män i gymmet att sluta när dom har sparrats med Nunes.
”She’s only been with us for the last couple fights, but I’ll say, 100-percent, this is the first girl I’ve ever seen in the gym where I looked and I was like, whoa,” sa Brown. ”I’ve seen her literally stop guys in the gym. Like, beating dudes up, making guys quit in the stand-up. And she, from an early age, has a grappling background.
”But I’ve seen her, like, make dudes quit (while) kickboxing in the gym. It’s impressive. … Professional fighters who are very tough, she’s beating up, and she can be mean too. She’s getting after them and the guys are timid, and she’s like the alpha, for sure. It’s pretty crazy.”
Brown tror att Nunes skulle kunna vinna över Rousey just nu.
”I think she could beat Ronda now,” sa Brown. ”I don’t know, maybe you try to build her a little more and get her a little more experience? But she’s more than capable.”
