Cris Cyborg will make her much anticipated UFC debut on May 14, facing Leslie Smith in a 140-pound catchweight fight in Curitiba, Brazil, and her ex-husband Evangelista Santos is confident that she will prove she’s the best female fighter on the planet.
Santos, who recently made his successful Bellator debut with a 30-second submission win over Brennan Ward, expects his ex-wife to win in dominant fashion in her hometown, but isn’t a fan of the way the UFC has treated her.
"They treat fighters like dogs to promote their events and make money," Santos told MMA Fighting.
