There is no doubt that Cristiane “Cyborg” Justino is one of the most dominant females to ever step foot inside the Ultimate Fighting Championship octagon. Her performances over Leslie Smith and Lina Lansberg were eye-opening to a lot of fans who just watched the UFC, introducing them to a brand new powerhouse in women’s mixed martial arts.
“Cyborg” has been on a mission to get herself another fight inside the octagon and UFC commentator Brian Stann felt like it was like to spill the beans on the former Invicta FC Featherweight Champion. After having a difficult pre-fight interview with “Cyborg”, Stann opened up about his issues with “Cyborg” in a recent edition of “Toe to Toe“. He said [via. MMA Junkie]
“The other thing about her. She gets George Lockhart to live with her and be there for her entire camp – cook all of her food. She didn’t pay for that. UFC paid for that. That’s a pretty massive advantage. That’s special treatment. That’s pretty awesome – an entire weight class made for her. She did turn down fights; I know that that did happen. She was hard to work with with them and did turn down fights.
More importantly, there was a time where she decided to lie about her weight and talk about her weight cut. For some reason, she started tweeting out her weight at a current time during her cut; the UFC was able to verify and they didn’t really go too public with this, but there were some issues there too where she was lying about her weight at the time.” “I’m not saying she’s 100 percent wrong in some of the things she’s putting out there, but she’s not doing herself any favors on the flip side by being so difficult to work with.”
Do you think “Cyborg” will fire back at Stann for these comments?
