Dana White and Cris Cyborg squash the beef following UFC 222<\/p>\n

UFC President Dana White and current women’s featherweight champion Cris Cyborg have not always had the best relationship and that is putting things lightly.<\/p>\n

With that said, it appears as if the brash UFC boss and the Brazilian bomber have finally squashed their beef.<\/p>\n

Speaking at last night’s UFC 222 press conference, Cris Cyborg told reporters \u201cI just shook Dana White\u2019s hand, we are friends now.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Dana White would echo Cyborg’s comments later that evening when he was asked about the current status of his relationship with the promotions women’s featherweight title holder \u201cYeah, her and I are in a good position. A very good position relationship wise. She\u2019s a beast.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Dana’s most recent comments are a far cry from some of his previous controversial statements regarding Cyborg, where he described the UFC women’s featherweight champion as looking like “Wanderlei Silva in a dress and heels”<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Cris Cyborg improved her professional mixed martial arts record to an amazing 20-1 at last night’s UFC 222 event in Las Vegas defeating Yana Kunitskaya via first-round TKO<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Since joining the UFC ranks at UFC 198 in May of 2016, Cyborg has gone a perfect 5-0 which includes four knockout victories.<\/p>\n

Cris Cyborg’s lone decision win came at UFC 219 where she defeated former women’s bantamweight champion Holly Holm<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Cyborg now has her sights set on a super-fight with current UFC women’s bantamweight title holder Amanda Nunes<\/a>, which she hopes will happen at July’s UFC 226 event.<\/p>\n

Who do you think will emerge victorious if Cris Cyborg and Amanda Nunes square off in a super-fight later this year? Sound off PENN Nation!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
