Cyborg vs Nunes....

The fight is still possible. Cyborg took a fight, Nunes wanted to get a fight in, so she took a title defense.

None of that means the fight is impossible.
I got nothing against taking the Rocky fight but asking for Ketlen too, and that's song and dance about contract negotiations don't look good.

AND IMO this fight only happens now if Amanda gets alot of backlash and changes her tune same as Cyborg received and did.

I think Cyborg taking the Yana fight was her way of avoiding it, TBH. UFC had it projected for Rio @224.
 
Nunes sounds pretty gun hoe about it. Even calling Cyborgs comments about not wanting to fight Nunes because she doesn't like the fact that 2 brazilians would be fighting is wrong and it doesn't matter if it's Brazilian vs Brazilian, but the best vs the best.

What in the hell did you just say? Like it's Cyborg and Nunes proof reading your post or something.

She did exactly what the UFC wanted Holm and Tate to do, wait for Rousey. She was well compensated.

What does that have to do with her making a lot of money fighting Cyborg, as proven by Cyborg's drawing power so far with the 3rd highest PPV of 2017 and a very respectable 260k buys for a last minute shoe-in vs. some unknown can?

Look at what UFC 215 did, 100k PPV w/her fighting Schevchenko. People are hating on Nunes now because her fights have been sucking lately + the pull out. Why would she turn down a superfight or a 145 fight for lots of money that doesn't touch her 135 belt....other than, she doesn't want her face rearranged by Cyborg?

Cyborg took that UFC 222 fight on 2-3 weeks notice to save the event. You think Mr. Clean didn't call Nunes way before Kunitskya? The only people that would answer the call on such short notice would be people w/o much to lose, but lots to win. That was a guaranteed $100k payday for her = 4-5x her normal pay in Invicta.

You really think that Nunes would have agreed to fight Cyborg on a 2-3 weeks notice????????????????????????
