What Happened Next

Cris Cyborg‘s UFC deal took time to turn into a title fight. With no featherweight division at first, she fought at catchweights in 2016 before the UFC created a women’s 145-pound title, which she won in 2017. She held it until Amanda Nunes knocked her out at UFC 232 in December 2018, then moved to Bellator, where she became its featherweight champion.

Rousey’s new contract was followed by her loss to Holly Holm at UFC 193 that November, while McGregor’s UFC 189 was the start of his run to two belts.
