UFC 219 Main Event Signed: Cris Cyborg vs Holly Holm

Cyborg won the vacant title in July at UFC 214 with a victory over Tonya Evinger. The former Strikeforce and Invicta champion, Cyborg has a history of success in the division and is seen as not only the top Women’s featherweight but one of the top pound-for-pound women’s fighters in the world.

This is Holm’s second chance at the Featherweight Title. She lost the inaugural title match to Germaine de Randamie at UFC 208. A former world champion boxer, Holm is best known in MMA circles for her knockout of then Women’s Bantamweight Champion Ronda Rousey at UFC 193.

UFC 219 is scheduled to take place at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada on December 30, 2017.  Traditionally the pre-New Year’s show is one of the UFC’s biggest pay-per-view dates of the year.
