Strikeforce Results: Cris Cyborg TKO's Hiroko Yamanaka in 16 seconds
Posted on December 18, 2011, 12:01 AM by Anton GurevichStrikeforce Women's Featherweight Champion Cristiane "Cyborg" Santos scored another impressive victory, this time TKO'ing the Japanese veteran Hiroko Yamanaka in just 16 seconds.
Just like in any other of her fights, Cyborg went guns blazing right off the bat, dropping Hiroko Yamanaka with one of the punches. Yamanaka was able to recover, but not for long as Cris Cyborg continued to unleash fury, eventually forcing the referee to stop the action after just 16 seconds.
Cyborg is now 11-1 in her illustrious MMA career, with Ronda Rousey as a potential challenger for the belt. In her post-fight interview, Cyborg called out Rousey for "talking too much", claiming that she's more than happy to give the Olympic Bronze medalist her shot at the title.

Its either that Christiane Santos was a dude once or she just eats a lot of horsemeat
Wandy with a wig?
Well done Cris .....Yamanaka needs to stop spending her training time doing modeling....got to be full on in this game lady and this is what happens if you are not.
Most dominant fighter in the sport, no-one is even close to her
Frank cracked me up....."Yea, these ladies get in the cage and seem really surprised" lol
Its getting old seeing little Japanses girls get thrown around like ragdolls.
There has to be some cowgirls in the USA that can throw down pretty nasty but it will take more mainstream of women to get them there.
I could be wrong but Im pretty sure her last 3 wins were against American, Dutch, American? But oh well....This women is the bomb. At Fighting. None of you are her bf so stop worrying about what she looks like. I met this women in San Diego and she was suppperrrrr nice. Her husband too.
Santos is simply dominant at the moment
She is big, clearly cutting a good deal of wieght to make 145
and powerful, witness her muscle mass
has striking skills lightyears ahead of any of her challengers
and simply better all around than anyone SF has brought to her so far
but the future for her may be at 135
and then let's see what losing the extra weight does to her
If she can't go down to 135
then SF needs to get to scouting for big, rough gals around the globe
to try to hang with her
its obvious that she takes growth hormones no woman can get that big without them. i'm all for mma organizations taking blood from fighters to determine who is doping, look at any women's all natural body builders, none of them are half her size.
