Henry Cejudo believes Nunes is ‘more technical’ than Pena
Henry picks the GWOAT to get her hands raised after the fight this weekend in the main event against “The Venezuelan Vixen”. Triple C explains his reasons as to why he is betting on Nunes in his recent tweet. “I think it is the mindset. I don’t think she’s going to fight emotional this time. Number two, is the technical aspect. She’s so much more technical than Julianna,” said Triple C in his breakdown video.
“The first fight she fought very emotional and they were going toe to toe and she really didn’t understand her threshold. And through the emotions you’re able to get tired and that’s exactly what happened.” Henry also believes that Amanda is not accustomed to being the champion which will drive the Lioness to be more focused on getting her belt back.
“She misses being the champion…she lost her world championship and she wants to get it back. So she has the desire that she wants,” said Triple C. Henry also believes Amanda gets the job done under just 2.5 rounds against Pena.
