Cris Cyborg plans PFL return against undefeated star after upcoming boxing match
May 16, 2025
Cris Cyborg has two more MMA fights left on her ‘legacy tour’.
This weekend, the five-promotion women’s featherweight champion and one of the greatest fighters of all time will celebrate her 20th anniversary in MMA from inside the boxing ring.
That’s right, Cris Cyborg will look to improve to 7-0 as a pro boxer when she takes on the 4-1 Precious Harris-McCray at Fight Night San Jose on Saturday.
The former UFC champion hasn’t fought in MMA since dethroning PFL champion Larissa Pacheco last October—the same night Francis Ngannou made his return from boxing.
Cyborg holds an impressive MMA record of 28-2 (1 NC) with many of those championship wins.
After her upcoming boxing match, Cyborg will look to have two more MMA fights in the PFL before she calls it a career, one of which she wants against an undefeated star.
Cris Cyborg believes she’s fighting Bellator’s Sara Collins next
Earlier this week, 6-0 Bellator star Sara Collins tagged the champ Cyborg on an Instagram story, posing with the belt. Cyborg replied to Collins: “Be careful what you wish for…”
“I believe she’s gonna be my next opponent,” Cyborg confirmed to Bloody Elbow.
“She’s the next one on the line for the belt. Sara Collins, she’s the girl that beat Leah McCourt, she was the next challenger.”
Ireland’s McCourt was long thought to be the next to face Cyborg for the Bellator title but before that could happen, Collins submitted her in the first round last September.
