Cris Cyborg made easy work of Leslie Smith in her UFC debut this past weekend and many expected her to call out Ronda Rousey in the octagon after the huge win.
Instead, Cyborg used the time to thank her hometown fans and to let the world know that she’s a fighting champion in Invicta.
“I believe it was my moment. Tonight was my moment, it was historic.” Cyborg said. “I never thought I’d be sitting here tonight. I never thought I’d be here after everything I went through and it’s a historic moment for me. Talking about her is something that people are going to talk about, but I let my fans decide on who my opponent will be and I just have to be ready.”
That narrative changed after 24 hours.
Hey @rondarousey you running all the way to New York? #dontbescaredhomie #CHAMPIONvsEXChampion #ufc205 https://t.co/thgexmLrgI
