Cyborg doesn't want to fight new UFC champ Amanda Nunes
Cris Cyborg wants to be a UFC champion, and has repeatedly said that she's open to fighting the UFC's best women's bantamweights in superfights at 140 pounds.
But the Invicta FC champion made it clear Saturday night that she was not willing to fight newly minted 135-pound titleholder Amanda Nunes.
I won't fight a Brazilian at 140 but now that miesha, Ronda, holly aren't champ maybe they'll fight me #ufc205

Nunes ended Brazil's 48-hour non-champion drought when she won the belt from Miesha Tate at UFC 200. When Rafael dos Anjos lost his title on Thursday, it was the first time since 2005 that at least one Brazilian hasn't held a UFC title. But Nunes was able to end the weekend on a high note for the country.
Cyborg surely has no plans to rain on her fellow Brazilian's parade, but that won't in any way stop her from chasing big fights with Ronda Rousey, Miesha Tate or Holly Holm.
Congrats @Amanda_Leoa amazing fight! Brasil! Mulherada salvando!
