Invicta FC 21 takes place January 14, 2017. The event will be headlined by top featherweight contenders Megan Anderson and Charmaine “Not So Sweet” Tweet. The event will also feature the MMA debut of undefeated professional boxer Heather Hardy.

The current Invicta FC Featherweight champion Cris “Cyborg”, last defended her belt on January 16th of this year. By the time Anderson and Tweet face off, it will have been almost a year since the belt has been defended. Cris “Cyborg” has more recently been competing in the UFC at 140lb catchweight bouts and is campaigning for the 145lb ladies to be brought to the UFC. She recently revealed that if the UFC does not bring in a featherweight division, she will leave the UFC and go to Bellator or Rizin FF. No mention of Invicta FC, it appears Cris has other focuses right now.

Tweet and Anderson are two of the top featherweights in the world, and have shown their loyalty to Invicta FC over the years. After a loss to “Cyborg” 22 months ago, “Not So Sweet” is now on a three fight winning streak. She last fought in May of this year facing a undefeated power striker similar to “Cyborg”, Latoya Walker. Tweet knocked her out in round 1 with a vicious spinning backfist, opening many fans eyes with how fast she is developing her skills. Tweet is constantly improving her MMA game and is now one of the best fighters in the world.

Meanwhile, Australia’s Megan Anderson has fought three times for Invicta FC this year with TKO finishes over Amber Leibrock, Amanda Bell and Peggy Morgan. Fans have been campaigning for a fight between Anderson and Cyborg for quite some time now.

It appears Cyborg has moved on from her Invicta FC days, with plans to move to Bellator or Rizin FF. Charmaine Tweet and Megan Anderson deserve to be fighting for the Invicta FC World Featherweight championship title belt if not that then perhaps the interim belt.

Do you agree? Should #TweetVSAnderson be for the 145lb belt? Let us know in the comments below.
