“Cyborg victorious in boxing match” – seriously, does anyone actually care
Womens boxing sucks maybe Cyborg will make it more exciting.
He’ll ya we care!!!!! I waited all fucking week to watch this fight. To those who don’t care, BOUNCE
I always like to see Cyborg do well in whatever she does. Glad she got the win here.
It’ll be interesting to see how far she tries to take this. I saw her in a kickboxing match years ago and she literally fought the best in the world at her weight and got pounded. She’s 37 now though, but I would still expect her to take a shot at a decent opponent if she sticks with it.
Cyborg was getting good work sparring with (GWOAT) Clarissa Sheilds I think she may be more legit than people think.
Guess she can try to make money that way
