All the time Bellator talk[s] to me, ok next is going to be Cat Zingano and then change, and then going to be Cat Zingano and then Arlene Blencowe ... and then Sinead [Kavanagh]. So she always say[s] 'I want to fight one more fight, one more fight next' and then never ready.” Watch the full Cris Cyborg interview below: In a recent Tweet, the American responded to Cyborg's claims that she was running from a fight.
