LAS VEGAS – Megan Anderson wants her crack at the champion after another dominant display from UFC women’s featherweight titleholder Cris Cyborg at UFC 222. Cyborg (20-1 MMA, 5-0 UFC) extended her lengthy unbeaten streak on Saturday when she defeated Yana Kunitskaya (10-4 MMA, 0-1 UFC) by dominant first-round TKO in UFC 222’s pay-per-view main event at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. Although UFC officials seems keen on booking Cyborg against women’s bantamweight champion Amanda Nunes (15-4 MMA, 8-1 UFC) next, the Brazilian powerhouse can aways use more challengers, and Anderson (9-2 MMA, 0-0 UFC), a former 145-pound titleholder under the Invicta FC banner, has been pushing for the fight for several years.
