Here she is at the weigh-ins for her most recent, and first, UFC fight:
Leslie Smith is one of the bravest female fighters on the planet, nobody wanted to step up and introduce Cyborg to the UFC but Leslie was down to do it. She might be seen as a sacrificial lamb, but who knows how Cyborg will look? Her nutritionist said she’s going to go from 139lbs all the way up to 168lbs the very next day to fight, so she’s going to have a massive size advantage, hopefully she still has the cardio and we end up with a barn burner. Win or lose, this fight could do a lot for Leslie’s career if she puts on a great showing as such a heavy underdog, whereas the expectations and pressure are massive for Cyborg now that she’s f finally fighting in the UFC.

She’ll need to cut an additional few pounds to make 135, which is going to be super tough considering she looks completely dry at the weigh-ins. They’re saying she can do it, if she’s willing to give up some muscle. Hopefully she isn’t willing to give up that booty.
