A two-division

A two-division champion, Amanda Nunes will put her bantamweight belt on the line against former UFC champion Germaine de Randamie.

Nunes, who also holds the featherweight belt, knocked out Holly Holm in July to defend her title. She won the featherweight championship last December with a 51-second knockout of Cris Cyborg.

De Randamie won the inaugural featherweight title in 2017 with a decision over Holm, returning to bantamweight after vacating the belt.
