Amanda Nunes claims she won’t be granting a rematch to Cris Cyborg, nor does she intend on competing again at the weight where she just won a second piece of UFC gold.

Following Nunes’ (17-4 MMA, 10-1 UFC) shocking 51-second knockout of Cyborg (20-2 MMA, 5-1 UFC) at UFC 232 last month, talk of an immediate rematch between the two Brazilians began to pop.

Although Nunes did not address a possible matchup with Holm, she did have a matchmaking idea for Cyborg in current PFL standout and two-time Olympic gold medalist Kayla Harrison (3-0), who trains alongside Nunes at American Top Team in Florida.
