Bellator President Scott Coker appeared at a recent episode of the MMA Hour show. While chatting with Ariel Helwani he announced a piece of big news. Bellator featherweight champion, Cris Cyborg is set to return to action at Bellator 271. She will defend her throne against Irish fighter Sinead Kavanagh. Cyborg defended her title against Leslie Smith in her last fight at Bellator 259 in May. The Brazilian fighter will look to establish her legacy furthermore in her newfound home in Bellator MMA. A win against Kavanaugh will mark Cyborg’s fifth consecutive triumph since her UFC 232 loss against Amanda Nunes. Cyborg joined Bellator after her UFC 240 win against Felicia Spencer. She has won all 3 of her fights in the promotion. What’s more impressive is the fact that the 36-year-old fighter has finished all of her last 3 opponents. CRIS CYBORG IS ONE OF THE BEST EVER IN WOMEN’S MMA Cyborg is one of the pioneers of women’s MMA. She has been a pro since 2005 and has fought in organizations like Elite XC, Strikeforce, Invicta FC, Bellator, and obviously the UFC. Also, Cyborg has held championship belts almost everywhere she has competed in her career. An astounding professional record of 24-2-1 is a benchmark in its own merit.

(Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC/Zuffa LLC via Getty Images) Gina Carano, Holly Holm, Leslie Smit, and more are some of her most notable wins as a professional. The Brazilian star also holds a massive 20 finishes in her career. 19 T/KO and 1 submission win comprise those numbers for her. No fighter has come close to being a match to Cyborg [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/cris-cyborg/] in Bellator. It will be interesting to see if Kavanagh can surprise her with an element of surprise from her arsenal. Otherwise, it will be another walk in the park for Cyborg.

Cristiane Justino Venâncio was the most dominating figure in women's MMA history for more than a decade. She conquered the featherweight division in three different organizations and paved the way for the next generation of female fighters. Although Cyborg has two losses in her professional career, the only woman who has bested her skills per skill is Amanda Nunes.

<h2 style="text-align: center">Cris Cyborg: UFC Career</h2>
Cyborg started her UFC career at UFC 198 against Leslie Smith. She defeated her opponent via technical knockout to begin her UFC career with a bang. One of the best bouts of her career was when she won the featherweight championship after defeating Tonya Evinger.

She was also able to defeat Holly Holm and Yana Kunitskaya in her next two matches. Her only UFC defeat came after she went down to <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/amanda-nunes/">Amanda Nunes</a> at UFC 232. It was her first defeat since she lost her debut fight.
