Amanda Nunes coach Conan Silveira throws water on Cris Cyborg’s rematch hopes

Cris Cyborg seems to be the only person who is getting behind the idea of an immediate rematch between her and now bantamweight and featherweight UFC champion, Amanda Nunes.

Nunes has been heralded as the greatest female MMA fighter of all time on the back of her 51- second knockout of her fellow Brazilian in the co-main event of UFC 232 on Saturday in Inglewood, Calif., which saw her add the 145-pound strap to her trophy cabinet.

Speaking after the bout, Cyborg said she wanted another crack at Nunes, but both UFC president Dana White and the newly crowned double champion didn’t seem too enthused by the idea.
