Cris Cyborg announces that she will fight Germaine de Randamie for the title at UFC 214

Cris Cyborg noted on her Instagram account that she will fight Germaine de Randamie for the UFC Women’s Featherweight championship at UFC 214.

UFC is yet to make the fight official for the event which takes place at the Honda Center in Anheim. Randamie had suffered an injury during her fight against Holly Holm last February and the extent of the same puts the fight in doubt.
