Amanda Lemos made a strong comeback at UFC 313, beating young contender Iasmin Lucindo through effective grappling techniques that led to a unanimous decision. This victory was crucial following her recent losses, particularly against champion Weili Zhang. Lemos emphasized her enhanced physical condition and determination as key factors in her performance, expressing confidence despite the age difference with Lucindo. She aims to continue fighting multiple times before the year's end, motivated by her daughter who has yet to witness her in action live.
A lot has been said about the age gap, but I'll tell you what: I have never felt so good, as good as I am right now.
Where ever people were attacking me. I think that the girls were basically attacking my weak points, which was the grappling.
It does not matter who I face, it doesn't matter how much younger this person is, it matters how good I feel at the moment right now.
The year started off on the right foot. I'm coming [out of] here with a win, showing exactly to the division that I've improved where they saw flaws.
