Amanda Nunes and Kayla Harrison finally faced off after Harrison defeated Julianna Peña, and Chael Sonnen is here to break down the timeline, the motives, and the behind-the-scenes reality that most fans are missing.

In this analysis, Chael walks through that moment in Salt Lake City when Amanda stepped into the cage — and why the location actually matters. He breaks down the sincerity of Amanda’s callout, the shifting momentum inside American Top Team, and how Kayla’s rise contributed to Amanda eventually leaving the gym entirely.

Chael explains the unwritten rule of MMA camps: champions don’t walk away from the throne unless they can feel the room changing. Whether Amanda was losing rounds or simply sensing the trend, Chael argues that the direction of the team was moving toward Kayla — and that emotional dynamic plays directly into their upcoming fight.

He also breaks down the biggest concern: Amanda coaching herself. Chael lays out why every all-time great — from Serena to Mayweather to Jordan — had a coach, and why self-coaching is historically a one-way path to disaster, especially in a five-round fight with a conditioned athlete like Kayla Harrison.

Finally, Chael addresses the debate around their placement as a co-main event. He explains why this fight was created in a co-main event moment and why expecting it to headline is misunderstanding how the sport works.

If you want real insight, not hype, this is vintage Chael Sonnen.
