Kayla Harrison’s Manager Eyes Two-Division Title Run for Amanda Nunes Comeback

Kayla Harrison’s manager, Ali Abdelaziz, has outlined an ambitious plan for Amanda Nunes to reclaim her status as a two-division UFC champion. Following Harrison’s upcoming bantamweight title fight against Julianna Peña at UFC 316, Abdelaziz envisions Nunes returning to the octagon to challenge for both the bantamweight and featherweight titles. This strategy aims to reestablish Nunes’ dominance in the sport and set the stage for a high-profile showdown between Nunes and Harrison. Nunes, who retired in 2023 after a dominant victory over Irene Aldana, has recently hinted at a comeback. She expressed interest in facing the winner of the Harrison-Peña bout, particularly highlighting Harrison as a formidable opponent due to her strength and evolving skill set. The potential clash between Nunes and Harrison carries added intrigue, given their shared history at American Top Team. Nunes departed the gym amid tensions arising from Harrison’s arrival and rising prominence. As UFC 316 approaches, the MMA community eagerly anticipates the outcome, which could set the stage for a blockbuster Nunes-Harrison matchup and further elevate the women’s divisions in the UFC.
