Is the UFC afraid of Cyborg being the face of WMMA?

Oh please.

The UFC was thrilled when they acquired Cyborg's contract and made unprecedented offers to help her make 135 so she could fight in their flagship WMMA division. After she asked to be released, the UFC continually wooed her and apparently subsidized her Invicta contract. When it finally became clear that she was never going to make 135, the UFC gave her two gimme fights at 140 to make her look good. They are now going ahead with a 145 division in a move which can only be justified by the hope of featuring Cyborg as a star. They offered her the initial title fight not once but twice.

Where in all that do you get the idea that the UFC doesn't want Cyborg to be one of the faces of WMMA? They've been begging her to be a star in the UFC for three or four years now.

apparently you are not familiar with the strange goings on in TS head, for him this is pretty normal, although apparently he "trains" fighters...........
 
She begs for the 145lb division. They make it. She won't fight. How the fuck is it the UFCs fault?

Inga just besmirched the TS like Glover vs Murdernado
 
After her latest drug bust they probably are afraid of her being the face of wmma. Before that though, they tried like hell to promote her and give her a chance to be seen. There has never been another fighter afforded as many exceptions as Cyborg. She's just a mental midget who lacks confidence in herself and that's why she insists on having 20+ lb weight advantages and taking steroids. She's just not likable.
 
When Cyborg beat carano they shifted towards making Cyborg the face of WMMA and was doing a pretty good job of it till she fucked the whole thing up. This time she didnt even get to even fight for the title. I find it hilarious.
 
I dont give a shit she got busted for a banned substance without a exception for it .HER FAULT no more excuses, no more crying no more i can make weight,
 
Well if you were following MMA closely before Zuffa brought in Ronda and her special division then Yea we all know the UFC never wanted Cyborg and only wanted Ronda. It's not even up for debate.

First...had to edit this because the Shertards like pretending they know shit....

She was "flagged" for "Spironolactone" ...a water pill that prevents your body from absorbing too much salt and keeps your potassium levels from getting too low. Just clearing that up for those who hear the phrase "FLAGGED BY USADA" right away jumps to steroids and cheating.

You mean after Ronda got embarrassed and it was up in the air if she was even coming back? Ronda white nights are the worst.

Didnt mention Ronda in my post.
 
Not really considering she's ugly and has that whole steroid thing attached to her.

But they could make some good money off of her if they feed her the right fighters.
Cyborg, the unbeatable brazilian monster kind of stuff.
 
Cyborg last fought in september,Ronda/nunes fight was announced in october. Cyborg refuses to make 135,division created for her finally and well...you know the rest. Even if you wanted to make the very weak arguement that they only had her fight those catchweight bouts after Ronda was out of the picture,well,now that she is back in,they make a division for cyborg to fight in,the only way she can have legitimacy in the framework of the UFC. If they were afraid of her becoming popular,they would have never done this.

inb4: fuk u white knight

Well let's see you are calling a top level professional fighter a coward, referring to her looks like that matters and basically hating on her. So you got called out for being a whiny little bitch instead of being a fight fan. So ya weird IMO.
