Cris Cyborg has ventured into just about every style of combat sports having competed in Greco Wrestling, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Submission Grappling, Muay Thai, Boxing, and MMA. With all of those sports on her resume, one sport she has never competed in is Bare Knuckle Boxing. Currently scheduled to return to the sport of Boxing Jan. 19th in Temecula CA, Cyborg has a heavy punching style in MMA which many fans feel would transfer well into the sport of bareknuckle boxing.
Christine Ferea who defeated Bec Rawlings in a rematch of their first fight at BKFC 56 took to the microphone following her victory and used the time to call for a super fight with Cris Cyborg saying she would ‘Mop Cyborg’ in a BKFC bout.
I’m focused on my Boxing fight Jan. 19th but if @KaylaH isn’t going to be ready @PFLMMA anytime soon let’s talk @bareknucklefc 😉 https://t.co/eXrO76SeZq

While Ferea is the Flyweight Champion who competes at 125lbs typically, Cyborg said if she was willing to fight at 145lbs that she would be willing to have her team talk to BKFC in the event that a bout against Judo Kayla can not be made by the PFL in a timely manner.
