Cris Cyborg says having to do UFC 232 medicals during fight week is ‘ridiculous’

Cris Cyborg thought she’d seen it all, but the fight week for UFC 232 is unlike any she’s had to experience before.

On the second episode of her vlog for her upcoming featherweight championship defense against bantamweight queen Amanda Nunes, Cyborg chronicles her journey around California that involves her getting medically tested to be licensed for fight night Saturday, a process that only became necessary after the event was moved from T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas to The Forum in Inglewood, Calif., in the wake of headliner Jon Jones’s latest drug-testing controversy.
