Filed under: News , UFC Cristiane Justino cruised to a first-round TKO over Leslie Smith in her UFC debut. But her comments after the fight suggest that her plans for the future might not be what many fans had hoped. In this week’s Trading Shots, MMAjunkie columnist Ben Fowlkes and retired UFC/WEC fighter Danny Downes discuss. * * * * Fowlkes: Danny, I’m at a loss. At UFC 198 on Saturday night, “Cyborg” Justino put a quick beating on Leslie Smith , who thought she got a bad deal on the stoppage (and she kind of has a point), but was nonetheless probably headed for more of the same against a superior striker like Justino in the 140-pound catchweight affair. It was a dominant UFC debut, as expected, but afterward Justino said she’s not willing to cut those last four pounds to fight at women’s bantamweight.
