The best Featherweight in women’s mixed martial arts (MMA), Cris Cyborg, is set to battle with Muay Thai veteran, Lina Landsberg, this Saturday (Sept. 24, 2016) in a 140-pound Catchweight bout at UFC Fight Night 95 inside Ginasio Nilson Nelson in Brasilia, Brazil.
The main narrative heading into this bout has largely been focused on Cyborg’s struggle to make weight. The contracted weight for this bout is not a real division, so it ultimately doesn’t affect much of anything, but that’s where most of the talk regarding this bout lies.
Not about her opponent or the match up, which is pretty telling.
