Conor McGregor, Manny Pacquiao and Halle Berry rally behind Cris Cyborg ahead of UFC 232 fight

UFC women’s featherweight champion Cris Cyborg faces a tough task in the co-main event of Saturday night’s UFC 232 card, as she is scheduled to defend her title opposite reigning UFC women’s bantamweight champion Amanda Nunes.

While the challenge ahead cannot be understated, Cris Cyborg at least has the support of many of her fellow fighters, and at least one Hollywood star.

Ahead of UFC 232, the featherweight queen received well-wishes from former UFC lightweight and featherweight champion Conor McGregor, multi-division boxing champion Manny Pacquiao, and even Hollywood actress Halle Berry.

Here’s what these stars had to say to Cris Cyborg:
