Dana White says Cristiane Justino ’s recent defeat in muay Thai competition has no effect on her chances of fighting in the UFC. However, that’s mostly because he doesn’t intend on offering “Cyborg” a contract anytime soon. While he admittedly didn’t see the fight ( watch the Lion Fight 14 video highlights ) , the UFC president is fully aware of Justino’s (12-1) unanimous decision loss to Jorina Baars a week ago in Las Vegas. Ever since the fight, fans and media have been quick to say the defeat hurts Justino’s negotiating power should the UFC ever be interested in her services. Moreover, despite the fact the contest took place in a sport vastly different from MMA, many feel Justino’s loss to Baars takes away some of the aura from a potential match with UFC champion Ronda Rousey. White says both of those notions are irrelevant because Justino isn’t on the radar to fight Rousey or anyone else under UFC contract
