UFC 214: Cris Cyborg Adds 'UFC Champion' to Resume as Toughest Woman on Earth

At long last, Cris "Cyborg" Justino is UFC champion.

Justino bolstered her longstanding reputation as the most violent woman in MMA on Saturday at UFC 214, dismantling Tonya Evinger en route to a third-round TKO to win the organization's vacant featherweight title.

The victory caps Justino's two-year search for UFC gold after signing with the company in March 2015. That delay seems outrageously long considering she's been near peerless throughout her 12-year, 20-fight career.

The UFC belt now becomes the crown jewel in a collection that also includes a Strikeforce championship and Invicta FC title.
