After much speculation, Amanda Nunes’s next opponent has been revealed.

The champ-champ will face Felicia Spencer at UFC 250 May 9th in Sao Paulo, Brazil for her featherweight championship.

ESPN first broke the news.

Speculation was that either Spencer or Megan Anderson would get the shot.

Spencer defeated Zarah Fairn last weekend. Anderson also was victorious that night, but Spencer holds a win over Anderson, which likely factored into the matchmaking decision.

Nunes is coming off of a win over Germaine de Randamie.
