In the podcast he presents with the welterweight champion Tyron woodley, “The Morning Wood Show”, Din guaranteed that there is no type of animosity between the Brazilian women and guaranteed that his student will “kick Cris’ ass”.
“When I saw Cyborg against Tonya Evinger at UFC 214, I was impressed, but Tonya also endured a lot and remained standing as long as she could. Even at that moment, I thought Amanda would do much better. But now I think Amanda is going to kick her ass. I'm excited for this fight”, declared Thomas, revealing that Amanda does not feel threatened by Cyborg.
“For a long time, they said that Amanda was running away from Cyborg. I don't know exactly how this rumor started, but I was at her house a few weeks ago, before UFC 219, and she said she hoped Cyborg would win (of Holly holm) because I wanted to face her. It wasn't disrespect, it was just a desire to test himself. She said she would fight whoever she beat at UFC 219. But she said she wanted to face Cyborg. She said she didn’t see any threat in her,” she said.
