In all of her interviews, it always seems like she has a chip on her shoulder. Although she’s hot, her attitude is not!

Toughill is a bad match up for Cyborg. I think she can exploit her technical flaws and Toughill is big and strong enough not to get overwhelmed by Cyborgs initial onslaught

I’m not sure she can withstand the initial onslaught but if she does, she can certainly exploit Cyborg’s technical flaws. Toughill wants a can for her first fight so it’ll be awhile before we see them fight.

I'm not sure Toughill has the cardio after the cut.

She’s looking much bigger than she’s ever looked before, and she’s a big woman who had to really push to make the 145 lb cut before.

I agree that Toughill has much better and more technical boxing, but right now she’s not looking like she’s taking her training half as seriously as Cyborg is. Also, I think Cyborg’s leg kicks might be a factor if this goes the distance.

If you fight, you fight. If you hope, you hope.

Can Toughill exploit Cyborg’s massive defensive holes? Yes, but I don’t think she’ll be able to do it without getting caught by something. Cyborg doesn’t have much in the way of KO power, but she makes up for it with that insane pace coupled with brute strength.
