Report: Cyborg Offered Diet Expert Mike Dolce By The UFC
Cristiane "Cyborg" Santos (10-1-1 NC) reported that doctors recommend she not cut weight from 145 pounds to 135 pounds. UFC president Dana White said that the promotion would help her make the weight cut in safe way of dieting.
"She can get to this weight," said White. "We have an expert who can help you lose weight in a healthy way. We have Mike Dolce, who has wrestlers lose weight and still feel good and it's all about your diet. He is 100 percent ready to work with her and will not cost anything to Cris."
UFC hall of famer Tito Ortiz (16-11-1), who represents Santos, has told her not to make the weight cut and suggest she fight somewhere else. White thinks that Santos needs to make the weight cut now, while there's still interest in a 135 pound fight with Ronda Rousey (6-0).
"Cyborg needs to get on the boat," said White. "If she wants to fight in the UFC, she'll have to fight this category of 135 pounds. The stupidest thing about it is that she has Tito Ortiz as her manager."
No word on if Cyborg has taken the UFC up on their offer about a diet expert.

Dear god. I like Tito, but I cannot fathom why any fighter with professional mma aspirations would hire him as a manager.

Oh Tito. Good move by Dana to offer her nutritional help. Definitely puts pressure on her camp and DW wants that. Would like to see this fight eventually.

She always fought at 145,she shouldn't go down.You don't tell GSP,Jones,Bendo they should go down and offer them the dolce diet lol
Ronda always fought bove 135 too and wanted to go back up and challenge Cyborg at 145.If she would've stayed at 145 Dana would have made a 145 division.Cyborg should go to another organization,it's a joke to make her cut even more weight.

Wrong, she fought at 140 against Baszler.
Ronda Rousey didn't go back up to fight Cyborg because the UFC decided to sign her and make a 135 division. Cyborg was banned until 2 weeks ago.
Not sure why you even listed GSP,Bendo etc, thats completely irrelevant.
Fine, let Cyborg go to Invicta, who will she fight - Coenen, who after that? Ronda has Carmouche, Baszler, McMann, Zingano, Nunes, Kaufman, Davis, Tate, Kedzie, Dudieva.
