BRASILIA, Brazil -- Making weight is no easy task for Cris Cyborg, and she made it look even harder after tweeting to Brian Stann that she wouldn’t be allowed to have an extra pound on Friday morning.
The demand would mean that Cyborg would have to make 140 pounds for her catchweight bout with Lina Lansberg at UFC Fight Night 95 in Brasilia, Brazil. However, it turns out that she might have an extra pound after all.
During a pre-fight media day in Brasilia, Cyborg told the press that she wasn’t actually told by the UFC if she could or couldn’t come at 141 pounds.
