Earlier this week it was revealed that the UFC will be opening a 145lb division, Holly Holm and Germaine de Randamie are set to fight at UFC 208 to determine the first ever UFC women’s featherweight champion. Immediately after the announcement, current number 1 pound-for-pound fighter in the world Cris ‘Cyborg’ blasted the decision to leave her out of the title fight on social media. When asked for comment she told us “You know Dana always [is] against me! It’s really personal“.

Yesterday, UFC president Dana White fired back at Cris ‘Cyborg. He claims that ‘Cyborg’ turned down three title fights for the UFC, and says she has missed the bus, revealing that Ronda Rousey could be in line to get the first shot at the title.

Cris ‘Cyborg’ has announced on social media that she will reveal her side of the story to ESPN at 9am EST this Sunday.
