Dana White Didn't Appreciate What He Had in Cris Cyborg, and It's a Loss for UFC

Cristiane "Cyborg" Justino didn't seem to matter all that much to UFC President Dana White. How else can you explain that White let one of the most dominant forces in mixed martial arts history exit the company for a rival promotion after her contract expired this year?

Cyborg will take her impressive talent and unparalleled credentials to Bellator after she signed what company president Scott Coker called the richest contract in women's MMA history Tuesday.

Scott Coker

I am proud to announce that @BellatorMMA has signed @CrisCyborg to the biggest contract in women’s MMA history.
