Cris Cyborg wants rematch with Amanda Nunes, but Dana White not so keen on the idea: ‘It was a pretty convincing win’

Cyborg suffered a shocking first-round knockout loss to UFC women’s bantamweight champion Amanda Nunes on Saturday night at UFC 232, bringing an end to one of the most indomitable unbeaten streaks in the history of the sport. In the 13 years since Cyborg’s lone previous defeat — a defeat which came in her 2005 professional debut — the 33-year-old veteran reigned as the greatest female featherweight to ever compete, capturing virtually every major women’s 145-pound title in MMA, from the UFC and Strikeforce to Invicta FC and EliteXC. But that peerless run of success may not be enough to guarantee Cyborg a rematch against the woman who stopped her at UFC 232.
