Why The UFC Banned The Most Feared Woman in MMA

Cris Cyborg was once the most feared woman in mixed martial arts. She dominated multiple promotions, destroyed champions, and built a reputation as one of the most intimidating fighters in combat sports history. But despite her success, the UFC kept her at arm’s length for years. Between failed negotiations, weight-cut disputes, a failed drug test, public feuds with Dana White and Joe Rogan, and a rivalry with Ronda Rousey that never happened, Cyborg’s path to the UFC was anything but straightforward. In this documentary, we explore the complete story of Cris Cyborg’s rise from Brazil to global superstardom, the controversy that changed her career forever, why Ronda Rousey refused to fight her, and how she became the only fighter in MMA history to win world titles across five major promotions. #CrisCyborg #RondaRousey #UFC #mma Subscribe to Cris Cyborg!: This documentary draws on information and archival material from: UFC EliteXC Bellator PFL ESPN: ESPN: Cris Cyborg: Mike Tyson: Miles McPherson: Ariel Helwani:
