Cris Cyborg Wins Third Boxing Match Amid Controversy, Open to New Challenges

Following her recent victory, Cyborg faces callouts and continues to eye a match with Kayla Harrison.

  • Cris Cyborg, the former UFC women's featherweight champion, recently won her third professional boxing match with a first-round knockout against American lightweight boxer Kelsey Wickstrum.
  • Cyborg's victory was met with skepticism by some fans who questioned the legitimacy of the win, suggesting that Wickstrum took a dive.
  • Following her win, Cyborg was called out by BKFC champion Christine Ferea for a bare-knuckle boxing match.
  • Cyborg expressed her readiness to fight for the belt in a different promotion if Kayla Harrison, two-time PFL champion, is not ready.
  • Cyborg's priority is to fight Kayla Harrison and settle their longstanding rivalry, but Harrison is currently out of contract and has not yet resigned with the PFL since her last fight.
