The number of anti-doping tests conducted in Chris Cyborg by USADA in recent weeks caused the Brazilian to complain about possible “persecution” by the organization. Through her social networks, the UFC featherweight champion revealed that she was tested three times in less than a month, even though she has no fight scheduled.

The duel with Holly holm, which is expected for UFC 219 at the end of the year, has not yet been made official, and Cyborg hinted that the American has been pushing for her to be tested intensely before signing the contract for the fight. Through a meme, the Brazilian mocked Holm's relationship with Dana White, president of the UFC (see image below).
“It’s clear that USADA is chasing me. I was tested three times in less than a month despite not having completed a combat contract yet. I am a clean athlete and I support USADA as it gives me the chance to prove to my fans that I am competing clean. With that said, I want to make sure that Holly holm is being tested with the same number of tests as our main fight. If they show up at my house at 6am, then I want them to show up at my house. Holly holm to 6am the same number of times!JacksonWink MMA (Holm gym) has had more athletes than any other team in USADA suspended MMA and so I want a guarantee that both athletes will be tested the same number of times between now and our fight on December 30th”, said Cyborg in a long post on his Instagram.
