ABU DHABI – The way Julianna Pena sees it, she’s one win away from a UFC title shot. If she beats former UFC women’s featherweight champion Germaine de Randamie at UFC on ESPN 16 on Saturday, Pena (9-4 MMA, 6-2 UFC) thinks she’ll be the promotion’s only viable option to compete against champion Amanda Nunes next. “I think the resume speaks for itself,” Pena told reporters at a pre-fight news conference held Wednesday. “I’ve only dropped one in the UFC. I got overzealous, and I’ve corrected those mistakes. If I get past this one, I don’t honestly see anybody else that could be leap-frogging me at this point
