Cris Cyborg Extends Her Legacy, Submits Sara Collins to Claim PFL Women’s Featherweight Title

Cris Cyborg reminded the MMA world once again why her name belongs in the all-time great conversation. The 40-year-old legend delivered another vintage performance Saturday, dominating previously unbeaten judo specialist Sara Collins to win the PFL women’s featherweight title in the co-main event of PFL Europe 4 at LDLC Arena in Lyon, France.

Cyborg (29-2) secured the finish late in the third round, submitting Collins (6-1) with a rear-naked choke at 2:55 though the ground exchange wasn’t part of her initial game plan.
