Cristiane do Brasil "Cris CYBORG" American Shayna Baszler Santos derrotou esta noite a CBS EliteXC's show, e com base no que eu tenho visto de CYBORG, eu tenho a dizer que ela - e não o mais famoso Gina Carano - é a melhor EliteXC feminino misturado artes marciais lutador.

CYBORG Muay Thai é um especialista que tem brutal puncionar potência ea capacidade de controlar seus adversários na clinch com ela muscular da parte superior do corpo. Ela Baszler absolutamente dominado por cinco minutos antes de o ref finalmente colocar um misericordioso que lhe foi parar na segunda volta.

Carano, nas bancadas assistindo a luta, disse depois, "Isso foi surpreendente. Oh, my gosh, CYBORG, vamos fazer isso. Esse foi maravilhosa." Penso que há uma boa chance Carano e CYBORG irá lutar nos próximos EliteXC da CBS show em outubro 4. Se assim for, será o maior da história da luta da mulher MMA, eo meu dinheiro será em CYBORG.

Filed under: EliteXCBrazil's Cristiane "Cris Cyborg" Santos defeated American Shayna Baszler on tonight's EliteXC CBS show, and based on what I've seen of Cyborg, I'd have to say that she -- and not the more famous Gina Carano -- is EliteXC's best female mixed martial arts fighter.

Cyborg is a Muay Thai specialist who has brutal punching power and the ability to control her opponents in the clinch with her muscular upper body. She absolutely dominated Baszler for five minutes before the ref finally put a merciful stop to it in the second round.

Carano, in the stands watching the fight, said afterward, "That was amazing. Oh, my gosh, Cyborg, let's do this. That was awesome." I think there's a good chance Carano and Cyborg will fight in EliteXC's next CBS show on October 4. If so, it will be the biggest fight in the history of women's MMA, and my money will be on Cyborg.

Kimbo Slice, Gina Carano Likely to Return to EliteXC on CBS October 4

Filed under: EliteXC, MMA Media WatchDave Meltzer reports today (via Bloody Elbow) that EliteXC and CBS have tentatively agreed on Saturday, October 4 for the date of the third prime time network television mixed martial arts show, with Kimbo Slice and Gina Carano both slated to face as-yet unnamed opponents.

Although EliteXC's show tomorrow night on CBS is expected to suffer a decline in the ratings from May's premier, Kimbo and Carano are EliteXC's two biggest draws, and with both of them on the card together, the card should do a solid rating for CBS.

A big question about this show will be how CBS uses college football as a lead-in for EliteXC. With the Florida-Arkansas game scheduled for that afternoon, EliteXC would love nothing more than to have CBS spend much of the day reminding viewers to stay tuned for MMA, and pairing MMA with college football would be great for MMA's efforts to enter the mainstream. But CBS considers EliteXC part of its entertainment division, not its sports division, and that means there might not be a lot of corporate synergy.
