A few days after Conan Silveira, one of the Amanda nunes, ensure the fight between his pupil and Chris Cyborg, the featherweight champion fired at him, accusing him of taking his knowledge of martial arts from Brazil to the United States “for free”, and only caring about money, abandoning other important names from the American Top Team, such as Ricardo Libório. Finally, Cyborg called Silveira “creon”, a slang term immortalized by the former fighter's master, Carlson Gracie, which means traitor.

In a statement sent to the Combate channel website, the Brazilian also said that Conan does not know what respect and honor are and is only loyal to those who pay him the most, referring to the coach's contract with Dan Lambert, owner of American Top Team.
“I think it's a joke that Conan Silveira says that I need to fight with Amanda nunes to leave my name in the history of the sport. He is one of the greatest believers in the history of Brazilian MMA. We're talking about a guy who took everything Brazil taught him and sold it to the Americans for nothing. In Brazil, martial arts are about respect, rivalry, competition and honor”, declared Cris, also criticizing the way in which Silveira mitigates the offenses of Colby covington, his student, to Brazil.
“When Chute Boxe was fighting against Brazilian Top Team in Japan, they didn't need the coaches to take the microphone and give interviews instead of the fighters. Conan doesn't know what respect and honor are, he's loyal to whoever will pay the most. That's why Conan didn't side with master Ricardo Libório, because the Americans are paying him a lot of money to worry about his pupils calling everyone in Brazil trash and filthy animals. Imagine if the Colby covington If he acted the way he does and went to train with the old guard MTB legends (…)”, he said.
