Cyborg Secures Spot In ESPN P4P Top 10

Cris Cyborg has landed in ESPN's pound-for-pound top 10 at age 41, according to the network's latest rankings update.

The PFL women's featherweight champion extended her current winning streak to earn the recognition, per ESPN's rankings panel. Cyborg's recent run of victories convinced the voters that her impact on the sport remains undiminished despite competing in her fifth decade.

The Brazilian veteran has held titles across multiple promotions during her career, including stints in Strikeforce, Invicta, the UFC, and Bellator before joining the PFL. Her ability to maintain elite-level performances well into her 40s sets her apart in a sport where most competitors peak far earlier.

ESPN's pound-for-pound list typically features active champions and top contenders who demonstrate dominance across weight classes. Cyborg's inclusion marks a rare achievement for a fighter in the featherweight division, which has historically received less attention in P4P discussions than male divisions or women's strawweight and bantamweight.

The PFL champion is scheduled to defend her title later this year, with the promotion expected to announce her next opponent soon.
