Cris Cyborg Hits Back At Dana White: ‘He’s Always Lying’

Former featherweight champion Cris Cyborg is not taking anything UFC president Dana White says seriously ahead of UFC 240.

In what’s become a recurring theme, White has repeatedly claimed that a rematch with featherweight champion Amanda Nunes had been offered for Cyborg, only for her to turn it down. Most recently, he notably said he felt Cyborg was afraid of taking another loss and didn’t blame her for not taking the Nunes fight.

But for Cyborg, she can only laugh at the UFC head honcho’s repeated lies:

“I’m just laughing,” Cyborg told MMA Junkie recently. “He’s always lying. I just keep (focus) on myself and keep doing what I’m doing. I know the truth is going to come out.”

Cyborg faces Felicia Spencer in the co-main event of UFC 240 this weekend. It will notably be the last fight of her contract and she’s already hinted at testing free agency.

It’s not the ideal situation or time for things to be hostile with her boss. But Cyborg is used to criticism from White and would be surprised if he ever did something nice for her:

“If Dana White does something nice for me, I’m going to be surprised,” Cyborg added. “He’s doing this all my career. I just laugh at him. When I see him, I just laugh.

“It’s a business. He’s working with the UFC, but I don’t have to deal with him. I don’t deal with him. I deal with another person in the UFC, and this is not any problem. I just have to be professional.”

It’s not the first time a UFC fighter has clashed with White. But hopefully, things get sorted out between the pair after UFC 240.

Do you think Cyborg will remain with the promotion post this weekend?

Felicia Spencer Believes She Can Finish Cris Cyborg In One Round At UFC 240

UFC featherweight Felicia Spencer doesn’t see any reason why she can’t finish former champion Cris Cyborg in the first round.

Spencer takes on Cyborg in the co-main event of UFC 240 this Saturday in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. It’s a fight that the former Invicta FC featherweight champion may have expected a bit later on in her career. Nevertheless, she will face one of the most dominant female fighters in Cyborg in just her second promotional fight.

And the whole feeling is mind-blowing according to “FeeNom”:

“It is kind of mind-blowing,” she told BJ Penn. “I don’t know if it has hit me yet, but I’m just taking everything in stride and appreciating the moment. I know I am in a unique position but really happy I feel myself and excited to put on a performance.”

Spencer is no pushover either. For one, she’s undefeated and she’s also a natural featherweight unlike Cyborg’s past opponents. Four of her seven wins have come on the ground as well, and that’s where she plans on taking the Brazilian. A first-round finish is even possible according to Spencer:

“I think I just grind really well in my fights and capitalize on the smallest of errors and make things chaotic when I need to,” she explained. “She has fought talented fighters, but most of them aren’t true featherweights, so my size and strength match up with her. She won’t be able to manhandle me as she did to others.

“So, I see a first-round finish. The way I enter the cage is to get out as quickly as I can. But, not forcing anything or rushing anything. I don’t see why I can’t finish her in the first. If it goes all three I’m prepared to win every round and take her out. I’m prepared for everything and anything.”

Do you think we’re set for an upset this weekend?
