Dumont UFC: Norma Aims for Title and Nunes' Comeback

Dumont UFC: Norma's Bold Claim About Harrison’s Striking

In the ever-evolving landscape of women's MMA, Dumont UFC star Norma Dumont has stirred controversy by suggesting that Kayla Harrison's striking skills 'sucks.' Despite this claim, Dumont recognizes Harrison as the key to bringing former champion Amanda Nunes out of retirement. 'Harrison is the only one left, really,' Dumont stated in her latest interview. This bold assertion comes as Dumont prepares for her upcoming fight against Irene Aldana at UFC 306.

The Bantamweight Landscape and Harrison’s Role

• Dumont's rise through the bantamweight division continues to draw attention.
• Harrison, known for her grappling prowess, has emerged as a formidable athlete in UFC.
• With Raquel Pennington currently reigning as champion, all eyes are on potential title fights ahead.

As Dumont seeks a title shot, she hopes that a win for Harrison could trigger Nunes to reconsider her retirement. Nunes, who left the sport in mid-2023, has left a significant void in women's combat sports.

Nuanced Perspectives on Skill and Star Power

While Dumont acknowledges Harrison's remarkable grappling skills, she remains skeptical about the latter's striking abilities, advising competitors to nullify Harrison's dominant grappling game. 'She sucks on the feet... but her grappling is absurdly absurd,' Dumont remarked. These insights underline the ongoing discussions regarding the star power of the bantamweight division, with Dumont emphasizing the need for compelling matchups to enhance its profile.
