The main event of Invicta FC 13 was made official Wednesday when both Cristiane “Cyborg” Justino and Faith Van Duin cleared the featherweight limit of 145 pounds.
Justino, arguably the most feared fighter in all of women’s MMA, tipped the scales at 144.6 pounds. Van Duin seemed unintimidated by her Brazilian adversary as she weighed in at 144.9 pounds, and then promptly faced off with the defending Invicta champion during the customary staredown.
