The Brazilian Chris Cyborg did not like the statements of Germaine DeRandamie, new UFC featherweight champion. The Dutchwoman said, shortly after winning the belt with a victory over Holly holm, who had a problem at hand. Two days later, she went back and offered the American a rematch.

Cyborg, who would be the next challenger for the belt, mocked the Dutchwoman's stance, and suggested that De Randamie is running away from a duel between the two, which should take place soon.
“It's funny because they knew before this fight that whoever won would face me in the first defense of the belt. I was supposed to fight at this event (UFC 208), but I couldn't and it was clear that whoever won would be my next opponent. Now that she won, she first said that she was injured and needed surgery and two days later she said that she would do the rematch against Holly holm. It’s a funny stance”, said Cyborg on the North American program “The MMA Hour”.
Despite the scolding of the new champion, Cyborg said she was happy with the opening of her division. The Brazilian should soon resolve the issue with USADA, which notified her of a possible positive test. She explained that she was being treated for depression and requested a retroactive exemption, which should happen soon, according to UFC president Dana White.
