Winning and tenacity are, of course, part of what makes a fighter great. But most MMA fans can appreciate a fighter that gives their all inside the cage and out.

Born in Brazil, 'Cyborg' is no stranger to the impact of poverty. Throughout her time as a contender and champion, she has given back to the community.

In March 2018, she and her team spent time handing out 222 In-N-Out burgers to the homeless in downtown Los Angeles. It was her way of celebrating her title defense at UFC 222. Later, in August, she gathered school supplies for children by offering free classes at her gym to anyone who could donate. The following year, her team hosted a missionary in San Diego to feed the less fortunate.

On multiple occasions, the Brazillian has expressed that it is her duty as a champion to help the less fortunate.
