  • Amanda Nunes mengungkapkan tengah berada di persimpangan antara melanjutkan karier sebagai petarung atau pensiun.
  • Petarung asal Brasil itu ingin menepi sejenak agar bisa fokus menunggui kelahiran putri pertamanya.
  • Ini bukan kali pertama Amanda Nunes mengungkapkan niat pensiun sebagai petarung UFC.

SKOR.id - Pada awal bulan ini, 6 Juni 2020, Amanda Nunes sukses meraih kemenangan atas Felicia Spencer dalam laga utama UFC 250 yang digelar di Las Vegas, Amerika Serikat.

Berkat kemenangan tersebut, Amanda Nunes berhak mempertahankan sabuk UFC Women's Featherweight Championship miliknya.

Dalam sesi konferensi pers seusai laga, Amanda Nunes mengaku tak akan berlaga pada sisa musim 2020 agar bisa fokus menunggui proses melahirkan sang kekasih, Nina Ansaroff.

Akan tetapi, delapan hari setelah pernyataan itu, Amanda Nunes mengungkapkan niatnya untuk pensiun dari dunia MMA.

Hal tersebut diungkapkan perempuan 32 tahun itu saat melakoni wawancara untuk acara televisi di Brasil 'Esporte Espectacular'.

Nunes merasa sudah cukup dengan karier MMA-nya dan kini berada di titik persimpangan antara melanjutkan petualangan atau memilih pensiun.

"Saya telah meraih segalanya yang saya inginkan. Saya berada dalam momen yang tepat untuk pensiun tetapi saya masih bisa bertarung," kata Nunes.

Sosok berjuluk The Lioness itu pun membuka peluang tetap berkarier di MMA, tetapi sebagai penemu bakat atau pelatih demi membantu menaikkan kualitas petarung perempuan.

Selain itu, keinginan pensiun Nunes juga didorong dengan belum adanya rencana jangka pendek UFC untuk pemegang sabuk juara kelas bulu dan bantam putri UFC itu.

"Saat ini, tak ada hal yang bisa saya lakukan di kedua divisi. Predikat Hall of Fame pun pasti akan datang," ujar Nunes.

"Saya terus melangkah maju. Jika saya berhenti sekarang, UFC akan terus memberi dukungan yang saya butuhkan untuk terus bekerja dan mendapat uang."

Ini bukan menjadi kali pertama Amanda Nunes mengungkapkan niatnya untuk pensiun. Pada awal 2019, Amanda Nunes sempat melontarkan komentar serupa.

Kala itu, ia berujar bahwa dirinya akan pensiun setelah menghadapi Holly Holm dalam ajang UFC 239, 6 Juli 2019.

Amanda Nunes pada akhirnya sukses mengalahkan Holly Holm. Namun, petarung asal Brasil itu urung pensiun.

Lima bulan berselang, ia kembali berduel untuk mempertahankan sabuk juara kelas bantam dengan menghadapi Germaine de Randamie pada UFC 245 yang digelar 14 Desember 2019.

Amanda Nunes pun tak tahu apakah kali ini dia akan kembali atau benar-benar pensiun sebagai petarung MMA.

Jikalau benar-benar pensiun, Amanda Nunes telah mengukir sejarah dan meninggalkan warisan sebagai petarung putri pertama yang berhasil mendominasi dua kelas sekaligus.
