In his recent podcast conversation with Dana White, Joe Rogan made a quip about Cyborg having male genitals, and his friend followed up with a joke about Cyborg making weight by cutting off her penis. First of all, it’s very flattering to assume that her package would weigh 10 pounds. Second, she’s a woman so that’s kind of mean to say.
Cyborg has been trying to get a fight with Ronda for years now, but the issue has always been that Cyborg fights at 145 pounds, and Ronda fights at 135. Normally that wouldn’t’ be a huge deal, but Cyborg walks around in the 170’s and has literally had a Doctor put on a press conference saying that she would die if she tried to cut to 135.
That was a bonehead move orchestrated by her bonehead manager at the time, Tito Ortiz, to try to strong-arm the UFC into allowing Cyborg to fight at a higher weight. Instead, it kept her at a smaller promotion where she’s continued to crush cans off the radar to anyone who isn’t a hardcore MMA fan.
The UFC and Ronda’s camp has said that they’re ready to go as soon as Cyborg can make the weight, and Cyborg has been campaigning for a catchweight fight at 140.
The main talking point was that the champion shouldn’t have to move up in weight classes to fight the challenger, but now that Ronda isn’t the champion anymore things could get interesting.
Immediately after Ronda’s limp body smashed into the canvas, Cyborg tweeted out “:)”.
But it might all be moot at this point because just said she doesn’t want to fight in the UFC anymore.

Dana White has also gone on the record saying that Cyborg looks like Wanderlei Silva in a dress.
