Cyborg rejects WMMA’s GOAT title: ‘Many women did a lot for the sport’

The only woman to ever win titles at Strikeforce, Bellator, Invicta and UFC still remains humble when looking back at her legacy. Despite her impressive record, Cris Cyborg does not like it when people call her the best female fighter of all-time, and she has some sound reasons to support her point of view.

In an interview with Super Lutas, Cyborg pointed out the dangers of believing in one’s own hype and how damaging that might be to her career. The way she sees it, remaining humble prevents a fighter from getting too comfortable and keeps them from learning more.
