Cristiane “Cyborg” Justino The latest chapter in the Cristiane Justino -to-UFC saga has revealed that the Brazilian will indeed attempt to make 135 pounds in order to move toward an eventual fight with UFC champion Ronda Rousey . News surfaced this week that Justino is contracted to the UFC roster, despite the fact she competes for Invicta FC. She currently holds the organization’s featherweight title, which she defended with a 46-second knockout of Charmaine Tweet at Invicta FC 11 in February. A drop to bantamweight has long been discussed, but Justino has never 100 percent committed to the weight. It appears that’s changed, at least according to UFC President Dana White, who said Justino will indeed work toward making the cut to 135 pounds. “For her next fight, she’s going to try to make 135 pounds,” White today said in an interview today with Toronto’s CP24
