It was reported on Wednesday night that Cris Cyborg was in talks to return to the Octagon in a 140-pound catchweight clash with Germaine de Randamie at UFC 201, but the Brazilian fighter quickly denied the news.
Cyborg, who defeated Leslie Smith in her UFC debut last Saturday, told the media at the post-fight press conference in Curitiba that her next fight would be a 145-pound title defense at Invicta FC, and she’s sticking to it.
"My next fight will be at my weight, 145lbs. Title defense at Invicta FC," Cyborg tweeted in Portuguese.
