Ahead of his return to action next month, Jon Jones has heaped praise on Brazilian veteran, Cris Cyborg following her super fight title win over compatriot, Larissa Pacheco overnight in her PFL (Professional Fighters League) bow — landing a fifth championship crown in as many promotions over the course of her storied career.
Cyborg, a former UFC, Strikeforce, Invicta FC, and current Bellator MMA featherweight titleholder, returned overnight for the first time since a knockout win over Cat Zingano a year ago, minting herself as the PFl super fight champion with a hard-fought decision win over fellow Brazilian star, Pacheco.
