Amanda Nunes was on a tear. Six straight wins. Six straight stoppages – the latest a 14-second knockout on the world’s biggest stage for women’s MMA.
But behind the scenes, before she took a fight with Alexis Davis to try and boost her Strikeforce record to 2-0, things were in a bit of disarray.
When she faced Davis this past September, her streak disappeared and she had her first loss in three and a half years. But with a new team and an invigorated drive, Nunes believes things are turned around for her Saturday bout at Invicta FC 2 against Raquel Pa’aluhi.
