Amanda Nunes down to defend her UFC featherweight title vs. Felicia Spencer or Megan Anderson

Amanda Nunes is ready for whomever the UFC chooses to put in front of her.

The UFC featherweight and bantamweight champion is down to take on either 145-pound winner from Saturday’s UFC on ESPN+ 27 event in Norfolk, Va.

Both Felicia Spencer and Megan Anderson picked up impressive first-round stoppages during the evening’s main card. Spencer stopped Zarah Fairn with ground-and-pound, while Anderson put away Norma Dumont with a straight right.

With a thin 145-pound divisional roster, many believe the most impressive winner at UFC on ESPN+ 27 would likely be the front runner for a title shot against Nunes.

The Brazilian champion took to Twitter on Saturday night to let the MMA world know she’s fine with either challenger.

“I like both winners tonight,” Nunes wrote. “Now it’s up to Dana White. I’m ready for either.”

It’s been rumored that Nunes plans on defending her title at UFC 250 in Sao Paulo, Brazil on May 9. The 31-year-old champ last fought in December, where she successfully defended her bantamweight belt, outpointing Germaine de Randamie in a unanimous decision.

Below is Nunes’ tweet saying she’s down to take on either Spencer or Anderson:
