Cristiane Justino, better known as “Cris Cyborg,” has suggested she may be forced to leave the Ultimate Fighting Championship if the promotion decides to remove the women’s featherweight division.
Last month at UFC 232, “Cyborg” suffered a stunning loss, falling via knockout to bantamweight champ Amanda Nunes in under a minute. With the win, Nunes went on to become the first woman in UFC history to simultaneously hold belts in two weight divisions. Justino called for an immediate rematch with Nunes, but the request seems to have fallen on deaf ears with UFC President Dana White not in favor of the fight due to the nature of Nunes’ victory.
