The UFC’s Octagon heads north to Vancouver, Canada for UFC 289 this weekend, with the women’s bantamweight title on the line in the main event.
Nunes has dominated the UFC’s 135 and 145-pound divisions over recent years, with her only slip-up – against Julianna Pena – being immediately avenged in the rematch. A trilogy bout was originally planned for the event, but after Pena’s enforced withdrawal, Mexico’s Irena Aldana has been drafted in for the biggest opportunity of her career.
Ahead of the matchup, former UFC welterweight title challenger and globally respected fight analyst Dan “The Outlaw” Hardy dives into the X’s and O’s of the matchup as he breaks down the matchup in “The War Room.”
