Does Cris Cyborg Have Any Pets?

Cris Cyborg’s Pet Zoo

Cris Cyborg has so many adopted animals that she stopped counting. In an interview with MMA Fighting she said “There’s Manny Porkiao, the pig, and the cats are Laila Ali and Sugar Ray. The dog I just got, the pit bull, is Holly — I texted Holly [Holm] asking if I could name one of my dogs after her and she said it’s cool. The chickens don’t have a name, I just call them Las Chicas and Las Niñas because one is older than the others. We called the parrot Chael because Chael Sonnen likes to talk a lot [laughs], and the parakeet is Belal [Muhammed], one fighter from Arabia.”
