Former UFC women's featherweight champion Cris Cyborg is in talks with the world's leading MMA promotion about a new contract, according to her representative Audie Attar, who spoke to ESPN's Ariel Helwani on his MMA show. Cyborg has just one fight left her contract following her shocking KO loss to Amanda Nunes at UFC 232, but her and her agents have been clear with the UFC they are interested in a reunion. In accordance with Attar, Cyborg hopes to fight at UFC 237, which takes place this May in Curitiba, Brazil. The main event of this event will be headlined by UFC women's strawweight champion Rose Namajunas taking on No. 1 competitor Jessica Andrade, and it makes a great deal of awareness to pump up the undercard with a fighter of Cyborg's fame and name value, especially in Brazil. If Cyborg does struggle at UFC 237, that is going to be the final fight on her contract, as he has just 1 battle left it with no winner's clause because of losing the belt. The UFC would be smart to bring back Cyborg on a new deal. She has been demonstrated to be a small pay-per-view draw at some time when the UFC wants fighters who sell displays, and she will not be economical to re-sign, she is shown to be well worth the money. So far as women's fighters go, there are not many more intriguing fighters than Cyborg and there sure are not many with much more name worth than she has. The UFC absolutely should re-sign her as long as the ask is appropriate. Even though it would be nice to see Cyborg receive a rematch with Nunes viewing as though she was on a 13-year win streak before dropping her belt in upset fashion, it's very unlikely Nunes would take this fight. The rumor is that Nunes wants to battle Holly Holm next for the UFC women's bantamweight championship, which would leave Cyborg without a upcoming logical opponent. There aren't too many featherweights from the UFC right now, but both which do stand out are Megan Anderson and Cat Zingano. Anderson just beat Zingano in contentious fashion after a toenail sliced her eye and the fight was stopped in the first round at UFC 232, but Anderson did get her hands raised. If the UFC desired to do Cyborg against Anderson in Brazil, that is a struggle that produces a whole lot of sense. Cyborg will fight that last battle of her contract, but in the case she does enter free agency, she will have a lot of suitors. Obviously, Bellator would take a run at her as her ex-Strikeforce promoter Scott Coker is in control of the business. But I would suspect RIZIN and ONE would also have a run at her, and of course the WWE, Golden Boy MMA and even some boxing promotions. Basically, Cyborg will have tons of options to select from. But if her agent is being sincere, she wants to return to the UFC, and it would be excellent for MMA fans if that's what happens.
