Werdum believes that Cyborg is far superior to Nunes and will “kill” the Lioness if the duel gets off the ground. The expectation is that the superfight will be part of the star-studded UFC 226 card or serve as the main attraction of the pay-per-view edition in Rio de Janeiro.

"I love Chris Cyborg, she is a great friend of mine. In my opinion, I honestly think she's going to kill her. For me, Cyborg is different, she's been the best for a long time. She's just arrived in the UFC, but she's the best of all time. It's a good fight, for sure, because Amanda is an excellent fighter too, she's the champion. But I think this fight in Brazil will be big, everyone wants to see it”, commented the heavyweight.

Werdum, who was a UFC commentator in Spanish before falling out with Dana White, is coming off two victories, he covers Walt Harris e Marcin tybura, after the controversial setback to alistair overeem.
