Transsexual fighter criticizes Cyborg: 'It's out of reach for those who don't take steroids'

Fallon Fox criticized Cyborg: Facebook / Reproduction

Fighter Fallon Fox is often the target of accusations that she has an advantage over other MMA fighters because she was born a man. However, for her, the athlete who has the advantage is another: the Brazilian Chris Cyborg, whom he accuses of remaining at a level above other competitors for using prohibited substances.

“There is a big difference between Cyborg and me. We're both women, sure, but one of us doesn't cheat. My record in MMA remains intact – I have never been suspended and I receive licenses to fight all the time. I care about my wins, meaning I would be less happy if I wanted to intentionally cheat. She stayed out of the competitive range of women, and she did it on purpose. The funny thing is that I fall within the competitive range, I was licensed by the commissions, and some people talk nonsense about me and don't say much about her. It is beyond the reach of women who do not take steroids”, said Fox, in a statement written on the website “The Underground”.

Fallon Fox, whose birth name is Boyd Burton, is 38 years old and has a professional record of five wins and one loss in professional MMA. She had sex change surgery in 2006, when she also began intense hormone therapy treatment.
