If Amanda Nunes is considering ending her retirement from the Octagon, Dana White is eager to have a discussion.
Nunes, the previous synchronised two-division UFC champ, now 36, revealed that she was hanging up her 4oz gloves in June of in 2015 following an effective title defence of her 135-pound title versus Irena Aldana– a choice which appeared to have actually nixed prospective strategies over a rubber match with Julianna Pena, the only lady to hold a triumph over Nunes in the previous years.
The Brazilian would later on avenge the loss to Pena by consentaneous choice before abandoning the title upon her retirement, much to the annoyance of Pena who had actually been campaigning for a 3rd bout with Nunes.
With Pena now the champ as soon as again following a close choice win over the now previous champ Raquel Pennington at last weekend's UFC 307, Nunes appeared to open the door to a return by releasing a message to Dana White on social media urging the UFC manager to ‘call her.'
“She looks excellent. It appears like she's still fit. You understand where her head is at and I enjoy that about her,” stated White to press reporters, consisting of The Mac Life, in Las Vegas on Tuesday.
“There are a great deal of things I like about her– and I enjoy that about her. She's watching on who wins the title next and I believe she's teasing that she may be thinking about returning.”
He included: “I like Amanda Nunes. I have an extraordinary relationship with her. I would definitely enjoy to see her returned.”
