Cris Cyborg comments on potentially trying her hand at professional wrestling one day.
Cris Cyborg is a pioneer of women's mixed martial arts. Arguably the biggest team to ever come out of mixed martial arts is Ronda Rousey and she's currently a WWE Superstar. Recently, many women's MMA fighters have explored pro wrestling as a viable option when they retire from cage fighting.
Speaking with Denise Salcedo, Cris Cyborg stated that she is open to one day trying professional wrestling if fans want to see her go that route, remarking that she has already had some experience training with Thunder Rosa.
“It's a different sport,” Cyborg said. “You know, it's like I said, I love challenges. If I have the opportunity, for sure, I'm going to train and do my best. I've done some training before with Thunder Rosa. it's fun, it's nice. Ronda Rousey is doing amazing over there and a few fans would like to see me, one day, doing pro wrestling, I'm going to do it.”
