The UFC already has a set schedule for the rest of the year. In December, things will get even better, as it is reported Amanda Nunes and Darren Till will both return.
ESPN’s Brett Okamoto reported that Amanda Nunes will remain on fire to defend her belt against Megan Anderson at UFC 256 on December 12th. In addition, Darren Till will return in the main event of a December 5 fight card against Jack Hermansson, pending medical clearance on Till’s knee.
Amanda Nunes is looking for her second consecutive title defense at fourweight. The Brazilian comes from a very dominant decision win over Felicia Spencer in the main event of UFC 250. It was her first fieldweight title defense after winning the belt by knockout of the first round over Cris Cyborg.
Nunes is currently on a winning streak of 11 fights and has beaten the likes of Ronda Rousey, Valentina Shevchenko, Holly Holm, and Cyborg. She hints at retirement after her last win, but the good news is that she will continue to fight.
Megan Anderson, meanwhile, is the clear number one supporter at fourweight. The Aussie is on a winning streak with two fights and 3-2 in the UFC with their biggest win coming over Cat Zingano. Her losses come to Holly Holm by decision and a submission of the first round to Felicia Spencer.
In the main event of the December 5 show, Till will be looking to get back in the winning column. The Englishman comes from a loss to Robert Whittaker on Fight Island. He won his middleweight debut against Kelvin Gastelum.
Jack Hermansson, meanwhile, returned to the winning column on Fight Island with a first-round submission over Gastelum. Before that, he suffered a knockout loss to Jared Cannonier.
It is likely that the winner of Till-Hermansson would receive the next title after the winner of Cannonier-Whittaker.
Who do you think will win these fights?
