Cris Cyborg: ‘The UFC Protects Ronda Rousey

“Everybody knows the UFC protected her. I’m ready for fight with anybody. I never choose opponent, never. I train every day and I never choose girls for fighting. I don’t know, I am in Invicta, you know. But when she first says she wants this fight, it’s not in my hands. I’m not a promoter. I fight in Invicta, not in my hands. It’s in their hands. I can’t make 135. I try, but I can’t. 140, I did it one time to fight Shayna Bazsler. I make 140. That was five years ago and I think that would be too much for me. For fans, make it for them to watch the fight. I don’t care about belts. I don’t care. I like to fight.”

In a recent interview, Cris Cyborg Santos explained why she believes the UFC is protecting her nemesis, Ronda Rousey.

Cyborg fights in a Muay Thai match tonight on AXS TV.
