“I like to fight on the same card as Jones,” Amanda Nunes said. “He gives me luck. It’s always a great night for me.”
Jon Jones and Amanda Nunes, both shown in January, are co-headliners for Saturday's UFC 239 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
The last time Nunes and Jones headlined a card was UFC 232 in December at the Forum in Inglewood. Jones defeated Alexander Gustafsson to win the vacant UFC light-heavyweight championship, while Nunes pummeled Cris Cyborg within a minute to win the UFC women’s featherweight championship. Nunes hopes that luck will continue Saturday when she defends her bantamweight championship against Holly Holm while Jones defends his light-heavyweight title against Thiago Santos. Nunes, in defeating Cyborg, became the first woman in UFC history to be a two-division champion as well as the first to hold two belts simultaneously.
