Cris Cyborg back to face Leslie Smith again at Bellator 259

Cris Cyborg is back for her 2nd title defense in Bellator taking on Leslie Smith a rematch from UFC 198.
Will Cyborg be able to crack Smith in the first round the way she did the first time?

Leslie a woman with no fear decided to fight Cyborg when everyone in UFC was saying no. A veteran who almost lost an ear to Jessica Eye, Smith is a warrior. She is 38 going into a rematch with the 35 year old Cris Cyborg.

Which woman will get their hand raised at the end of Bellator 259?

Who quite frankly cares what shes doing?
She ran from real competition, no time for her!

Cyborg made a career out of doing a shit ton of steroids and fighting women she was 2 weight classes over.

Gina showed so much class when Cyborg popped. Something to the effect of ‘whomever is telling her she needs them is wrong’ and was nothing but complimentary despite being cheated worse than pretty much any female WMMA fighter ever.

I never had a problem with Cyborg, but her running to another org instead of trying to rematch Nunes, and then telling Nunes to come to her, was the most blatently obvious duck I’ve ever seen!

Nunes knocking that dude out is the greatest moment in WMMA.

Cris is a Sweetheart that won’t face
anyone that can match her ever again. She talks big game but if she isn’t in charge she tucks. She can’t fight off her back foot and is not in a place where even the obvious juice can’t help her. Sweet heart juicer. Her friend Gabi is the only bigger juicer in women’s MMA history.
