Julianna Pena was never convinced of Amanda Nunes ’ retirement – and she still isn’t. Nunes (23-5 MMA, 16-2 UFC), who hung up her gloves after retaining her bantamweight title against Irene Aldana last June, was in attendance for Raquel Pennington’s title-winning performance over Mayra Bueno Silva in this past Saturday’s UFC 297 co-main event. Nunes said she still feels like a champion when asked about a potential comeback to the octagon and didn’t entirely rule out a return. Peña caught plenty of grief when she booed Nunes during her retirement speech, so she finds the former two-division UFC champion’s comments laughable
