Megan Anderson has been forced to withdraw from her featherweight championship bout against Cristiane Justino at UFC 214 due to “personal issues,” the promotion announced Tuesday evening.
As a result, Invicta FC bantamweight queen Tonya Evinger will step in and face “Cyborg” on July 29 in Anaheim. UFC 214 takes place at the Honda Center and is headlined by a light heavyweight championship rematch between Daniel Cormier and Jon Jones.
Evinger is unbeaten in her last 11 outings, eight have which have come inside the Invicta FC cage.
