How have I never paid attention to her? She is gorgeous!! I'll be very excited to see her fight, I hope she does well. But yes, she looks very solid. If she wants fights at heavier weight classes she will more than likely have to look at fighting in Japan (Rizin for example). Otherwise if she can cut enough weight, I hope she heads to invictus. They have some great female fighters. Maybe she'll start in a Japanese promotion so she doesn't have to cut large amounts of weight at the start, and the transition to a North American promotion as she settles in.

And I don't know why so many people (not just on this forum, but everywhere) want to throw cyborgs name around like that. As it stands, she is the goat of wmma. I probably wouldn't make comparisons of someone transitioning to Mma to then fight Anderson silva, Georges St Pierre or Jon Jones. It just doesn't make sense to me?

And I do think cyborg will fight again. Alot of fighters duck her (and for good reason). I'm hoping Australian Megan Anderson takes a fight with her. She's expressed interest before. Great fighter, got all the tools. Cyborg in my opinion would still win though.

Well she's at least as good as Ronda in the striking department, and as long as she avoids Edmund she has a chance to get even better

She's looking leaner too. I think she'll be fighting at 145.

Although she was never in trouble and was able to attack an overmatched opponent from the opening bell, to the casual observer, I thought Kayla showed excellent fighter instincts. She landed bothersome strikes from the dominant position, softening Brittney up until she got an opening for the armbar that many of us thought would come.

Hopefully she'll get progressively stronger opponents. I'm anxious to see her match up against a fairly-skilled striker (boxer/kickboxer) who has no real ground game.

Love it or hate it, those are the types of soundbites that sell pay-per-views.

At least in the UFC, talking smack is what gets you title shots.
