COSTA MESA, Calif. -- The conversation about Cris Cyborg ever going down to 135 pounds can officially be put to rest.
Cyborg told MMA Fighting on Thursday that she no longer has any plans to drop to women's bantamweight. The Brazilian knockout artist cited health reasons, the inability to use IVs and the understanding that she would be a depleted version of herself at that weight.
"No more 135," Cyborg said. "Superfight? Yeah. I think that's fair. Somebody can go up a little bit, I'll go down a little bit."
Cyborg was supposed to face Cindy Dandois at a 140-pound catchweight at Invicta FC 15 on Saturday night here at The Hangar.
