Amanda Nunes believes she will have the psychological advantage over Ronda Rousey when they meet on Decemeber 30. As the current UFC female bantamweight champion told Combate, she believes Rousey still hasn't recovered from her loss to Holly Holm.

"I'm not there, I can't talk about what I don't see, but if we observe the way she reacted after her loss, she surely has a weak mind. She's a weak person, she showed it after her loss. But I don't care, I'll still act like I'm facing the best Ronda ever. I don't think about that. MMA is always a surprise. You can blink and the fight is over. I'll fight her as if she fought yesterday."

Amanda Nunes is expected to defend her belt against Ronda Rousey at UFC 207, on December 30, in Las Vegas. Although the event doesn't have an official co-main event, it's very likely the spot will go to the rematch between former heavyweight champions, Fabricio Werdum and Cain Velasquez.
