Kayla Harrison vs Cris Cyborg

Kayla Harrison defeated Genah Fabian at the PFC playoff card in Florida, the two-time Olympic gold medallist is now 11-0 in her professional MMA career, and it looks like nobody can stop her anytime soon.

Kayla is a force to be reckoned with, and former UFC and reigning Bellator champ Cris Cyborg is open to accept a fight against her, talking to Ariel Helwani from The MMA Hour, she said, “I think it’s going to be a great fight for me. She don’t need to come in at 145, we can fight at 155. She said the last fight on her contract, too, I saw and I believe maybe she’s going to sign with the UFC, but she can make more money than Amanda Nunes in PFL.”

“I don’t know it’s going to be worth, but maybe we can do one fight, champion vs. champion. Scott Coker can be my co-promoter, maybe in the future. It’s a great fight.”

Cyborg was supposed to face Ronda Rousey during her UFC tenure, and she did prepare for her. Cyborg believes Rousey was a better fighter than Kayla, and she can definitely beat her.

“I was supposed to fight Ronda Rousey before and I was training for a camp,” Cyborg explained. “The first thing you train in judo is learn to fall. Because when you’re going to fight judo, maybe you’re going to fall yes, but you have to know what to do after.”

“I believe Ronda Rousey was more dangerous than Kayla. Her transitions were fast, her technique was fast and I know Kayla got a gold medal in the Olympics. But I think it’s a different level about the speed, about the transitions for the submissions.”
