Following the previous announcement that Cris Cyborg would be facing an investigation for a failed drug test by USADA, the immediate future of the women’s MMA pioneer seemed uncertain with the potential of a huge fine and a suspension from mixed martial arts.

It appears things are now looking up. UFC President Dana White recently mentioned on the 5ive Rounds Podcast that things are looking good for Cyborg and that she will definitely be next in line for a short at the UFC featherweight belt.

“The stuff goes down with her and USADA which is actually looking really good now, by the way. Um, apparently the three things that she has is what this medicine is used for. It’s looking really good … We’re in a good place. I truly believe whoever wins this title on Saturday night will fight Cyborg for the title.” Are you excited by this news? Who do you think will face Cyborg for the belt, Holly Holm or Germaine de Randamie? Let us know in the comments below.
