In December last year, Peña sensationally defeated Nunes by submission in the second round, breaking the Brazilian winning streak of 12 fights.
It is worth adding that in the second most important event of UFC 277, Brandon Moreno and Kai Kara-France will play for an interim title in the flyweight division. The promotion also announced fights between Paulo Costa - Luke Rockhold, Magomed Ankalaev - Anthony Smith and Derrick Lewis - Sergey Pavlovich.
