UFC 250 Video: Watch Amanda Nunes Vs. Felicia Spencer Countdown

The UFC is back in Las Vegas for Saturday’s UFC 250 pay-per-view event. In the main event, UFC women’s featherweight champion Amanda Nunes puts her title on the line against former Invicta FC 145-pound champion Felicia Spencer. UFC 250 takes place at UFC Apex.

Nunes, who is also UFC women’s bantamweight titleholder, is on a 10-fight winning streak. During that run she has defeated every woman who has held both the UFC women’s bantamweight title as well as every woman who has held the UFC women’s featherweight crown.

Nunes began her MMA career with a 9-4 record. She has not lost since Cat Zingano knocked her out in the third round of their 2014 battle. During her current winning streak, Nunes has racked up five knockouts and three submissions.

Spencer became a member of the UFC roster in May 2019. In November 2018 she won the Invicta FC featherweight title. Spencer joined the UFC before she could defend that title.

Spencer has very good submission skills, but she has not faced the level of competition Nunes has met and it feels as if Spencer is being rushed into this title fight after only nine professional bouts and three UFC contests.

If Spencer does pull off the upset at UFC 250, it will be one of the bigger upsets in UFC women’s title fight history.

UFC 250 takes place at UFC Apex in Las Vegas. The main card streams on ESPN+ pay-per-view. ESPN and ESPN+ carry the prelims and ESPN+ and UFC Fight Pass broadcast the early prelims.
