Cris Cyborg continues to roll over the competition.
Not since Ronda Rousey looked invincible not too long ago, Cyborg made easy work of Yana Kunitskaya at UFC 222 tonight taking her down in the first round via TKO with a relentless round of rights and lefts. From there the only thing Kunitskaya could do is hope that stoppage came sooner rather than later.

There wasn’t much to be said about tonight’s main event other than it’s what was expected, Cyborg dominating from start to finish while retaining the featherweight belt.
After the fight, Cyborg clearly had her sights set on Amanda Nunes:
Cris Cyborg, post-fight: “I am waiting for Amanda [Nunes] now. She called me out and I want to fight her. I just want to remind everyone that she called me out and, when you call out Cyborg, Cyborg will answer.”

Before that happens, Nunes will need to get by Raquel Pennington at UFC 224 then, sometime this summer we could very well see Cyborg vs. Nunes. Probably in July, once again in Vegas during International Fight Week.
