UFC President Dana White has since come forward to reveal that he would like to see Cyborg face off against reigning UFC bantamweight champion Amanda Nunes in the featherweight class. However, Cyborg has since turned down the possibility.

As heard in the video below, Cyborg has now revealed that she is willing to shift over to Bellator MMA after her fight contract with the UFC is complete if her demands are not met.
