Cris Cyborg's Legacy Is on the Line Like Never Before vs. Amanda Nunes

None of it is Cris Cyborg's fault, or almost none at least. But if "it" is ever going to change, if she's ever going to step into the full sunlight of the promised land, the onus falls on no shoulders but her own.

Every now and then, in any career, an inflection point will arise. For Cyborg, her upcoming bout with Amanda Nunes at UFC 232 is more like the inflection point. It summons every ghost of her fightining life and sets them in front of her. All she has to do now is defeat them.
