Today Cris Cyborg gave an interview to Globo with a stern message for UFC champion Ronda Rousey and insinuated she had signed with the UFC:
Lorenzo hired me, I’m back and I’m coming after you.
After that fight, or you will retire and go make movies, or will run away to the flyweight, as you ran away from me in featherweight. You’ll never be the best to face the best.
Come, because it takes two to fight. Do not be afraid. Fans me see here and you’re just talking. Have respect for them. It’s a shame you say you’ll face Gina Carano at featherweight and not me.

And tonight on UFC Tonight, Ariel Helwani reported that it is true that Cyborg signed a contract with the UFC, but it came with a stipulation:
According to Dana White, she signed two months ago, but the deal is: she needs to make 135 pounds in Invicta before she gets to fight in UFC. Next she’ll fight in July at 145, then will fight at 135 before entering the UFC.
