However, at last month's UFC on FOX 28 event, Andrade took on Nunes' ATT (American Top Team) stable-mate Tecia Torres--beating Torres by way of decision.
While the fight earned praise for both fighters, Andrade seems to have been irked by Nunes cheering for American fighter Torres, rather than her fellow Brazilian.
Resultantly, Andrade spoke to AG Fight (*courtesy--BloodyElbow), stating--
“I think Amanda got ahead of herself when she asked for the Cyborg fight,” Andrade added. “I was pissed off when I heard about it. I’m huge fan of Cris’. It’s horrible to have two Brazilians fighting each other, but it’ll be good for Amanda to have her ass kicked and be put back in her place by Cris.”
