After defending her featherweight title against Holly Holm at UFC 219, Cyborg -- real name Cristiane Justino -- shot down the idea of a potential champion vs champion superfight against bantamweight champ Nunes, insisting that she will only defend her strap against a top featherweight contender.
Nunes, 29, respectfully called Cyborg out on Twitter last week but her coach, American Top Team’s (ATT) Conan Silveira, has really pushed for the bout in the media, claiming that it’s ‘1,000 percent going to happen’.
Silveira’s comments didn’t sit well with Cyborg, who believes her fellow Brazilian is only interested in training fighters who offer him the most money.
