'Cyborg' Says Superfight With Nunes Not The Biggest Challenge of Her Career

A superfight between current Ultimate Fighting Championship women’s featherweight champion Cristiane Justino, better known as “Cyborg,” and bantamweight champion Amanda Nunes is all but confirmed although an actual date hasn’t been set which is causing a lot of frustration for “Cyborg,” who says she is ready to fight now.

“Cyborg” produced another devastating performance in her demolition of Yana Kunitskaya back in March, finishing the former Invicta FC champion in the first round and remaining undefeated in her UFC career.

The 33 year-old Brazilian was hopeful of keeping active by taking the fight with Nunes in September although the bantamweight champ announced on social media that she has signed a contract to fight “Cyborg” at UFC 232 on December 29 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
