UFC Hall of Famer and analyst Rashad Evans expects a third title change in the women’s bantamweight division over the past three fights at UFC 289 . With Irene Aldana set to challenge Amanda Nunes for 135-pound gold in the main event of the June 10 pay-per-view at Rogers Arena in Vancouver, Evans is predicting another title change, with the underdog challenger taking out the champion. “I’ve got to go with Aldana,” Evans said during a recent UFC post-fight show on ESPN+ . “Mexico’s on the surge, but Aldana, she’s such a massive force. She seems so big in there and that left hook, oh my God. Absolutely she catches her (on the feet).” Nunes (22-5 MMA, 15-2 UFC) will attempt to make the first defense of her second women’s bantamweight title reign against Aldana (14-6 MMA, 7-4 UFC) at UFC 289
