Bellator Women’s Featherweight Champion Cris Cyborg could be on her way to making her boxing debut against the pound-for-pound No. 1 women’s boxer.
According to Sports Illustrated, negotiations are underway for a boxing match in December between Cyborg and the 21-0 Katie Taylor. After the potential fight with Cyborg, Taylor could face a rematch against Amanda Serrano of their fight from earlier this year.
A formal fight announcement could come in the near future.
Cyborg, following a tumultuous tenure with the UFC, earned the Bellator featherweight title over Julia Budd at Bellator 238. She has gone on to successfully defend her title against Leslie Smith, Sinead Kavanagh, and most recently Arlene Blencowe.
Cyborg earned the UFC’s vacant featherweight title back at UFC 214 in 2017. She ended up being at odds with UFC President Dana White and the brass over her alleged mistreatment and ended up signing with Bellator in free agency.
Cyborg has never competed in the boxing ring but does have a 2-1 record in Muay Thai kickboxing.
Taylor most recently outlasted Serrano in an all-time classic back in April. She holds the WBA, WBC, IBF, WBO, and The Ring female lightweight titles.
Taylor expressed interest in a crossover fight with Cyborg, among others, back in December. She’s also hinted at a potential future fight against former UFC champion and boxing Hall of Famer Holly Holm.
Cyborg could potentially defend her title against Cat Zingano later this year if Zingano earns a win this weekend at Bellator 282. It’s unclear if her next Bellator fight will take place before or after the planned Taylor matchup.

As per an initial report by Sports Illustrated reporter, Chris Mannix, negotiations have taken place for a professional boxing match between Taylor and Cyborg – also, with the view to a rematch between the Wicklow native and Amanda Serrano in Dublin next year.
“Negotiations are ongoing for @KatieTaylor to face MMA star @CrisCyborg in a boxing, sources told @SINow,” Mannix tweeted. “No deal yet, but the hope is for Taylor to face Cyborg in December – and then move forward with a rematch against Amanda Serrano in Ireland next spring.”
Headlining in April at Madison Square Garden, decorated Irish puncher, Katie Taylor managed to successfully defend her WBA, WBC, IBF, WBO, and The Ring lightweight titles against the aforenoted, Cuba native, Serrano – defeating her in a close, split decision win over the course of 10 gruelling rounds.
As for 36-year-old Curitiba native, Cyborg, the former undisputed Strikeforce, Invicta FC, and UFC featherweight champion, managed to lock up her fourth successful defense of the Bellator MMA title back in April to boot at Bellator 279, landing a judging win over Arlene Blencowe in a championship rematch.
During her Bellator run, Cyborg has landed five consecutive victories, including other wins over Julia Budd, the aforenoted, Blencowe, Leslie Smith, and Taylor’s compatriot, Sinead Kavanagh.
A five-time boxing World Championships gold medalist, Katie Taylor managed to land gold at the London 2012 summer Olympics in the lightweight category. With her victory over Serrano earlier this year, Taylor landed the title as the best female pound-for-pound boxer on the planet to the consensus.
