The Lioness doesn't always get the deserved props for her exploits inside the Octagon. Nunes has just one loss to her name in the UFC which came against Cat Zingano and apart from her razor-sharp win against Shevchenko, the Brazilian has looked almost untouchable.

The biggest feather in her cap has to be her savage TKO win against Ronda Rousey. Nunes has gone from strength to strength to become the best Women's Bantamweight Champion after Rousey in terms of the statistics.

The Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt can even stake her claim for being the best ever but she would have to beat the final name on this list to do so...
