UFC Couple Amanda Nunes & Nina Ansaroff Down To Fight Each Other
Amanda Nunes and Nina Ansaroff could take things to a completely different level in the UFC.
Apparently, the couple are willing to fight each other inside the Octagon. Nunes currently reigns as the UFC women’s bantamweight and featherweight champion of the world. As for Ansaroff, she’s one of the top-ranked 115-pound female fighters in the UFC.
Speaking to TMZ Sports recently, Ansaroff revealed that she and Nunes have actually talked about fighting each other before. Ansaroff said once she captures the title at 115 pounds, she wants to meet her partner in a 125-pound superfight:
“We already talked about it,” Nina said. “After she gets the belt, I’m gonna get my belt at [115 pounds], and then we’re gonna do a super-fight at 125 … we’re so down. We really would try to kill each other. Why not? Bring the money home in the same household.”
Nunes agreed, saying she wants to retire by fighting Ansaroff in the final bout of her career:
“My last fight is gonna be against Nina and then I’m gonna retire.”
Ansaroff adds that the relationship between she and her fiancee is rock solid, and there would be no hard feelings after the fight:
“Afterwards it would be like, ‘that was awesome.'”
Before Nunes can focus on a superfight with her fiancee, however, she has a bantamweight title defense to worry about first. She’ll co-headline UFC 239 on pay-per-view (PPV) against former champion Holly Holm. The show goes down July 6 from the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
