UFC har bekräftat att de startar en kvinnlig fjäderviktsdivision och att Holly Holm möter Germaine de Randamie i den match som avgör vem som blir den första mästarinnan i divisionen. Här kommer ett gäng reaktioner på Twitter, bland annat från Cris Cyborg.
Det råder minst sagt delade meningar kring UFCs nya kvinnliga fjäderviktsdivision och den annonserade titelmatchen mellan Holly Holm (10-2) och Germaine de Randamie (7-3) på UFC 208 i Brooklyn den 11 februari. Många anser att Cristiane ”Cyborg” Justino (17-1, 1 NC) borde vara den som slåss om titeln.

UFCs tillkännagivande skapade självklart omedelbara reaktioner. En av dem som reagerade på detta var just ”Cyborg” som inte verkade särskilt glad över att inte hon får slåss om titeln i den första matchen, någonting hon har visat bland annat i en intervju med ESPNs Brett Okamoto. Här radar vi upp några reaktioner på Twitter.
Dana White tells me @criscyborg turned down three fights so they chose someone else to fight @HollyHolm …

Just 2 months ago there was no girls at 145 to fight. Now they have a girl who’s 0-2 fighting for the belt just to disrespect me.

When you don’t have legit rankings you get 1-5 vs 10-0 for a belt. And you get people like me waiting for a division now on the outside

The worst part is I fought for the division. I didn’t turn down I title fight I asked for a march date. 10 years no division and no respect

Heres the only case I can see for adding 145 instead of 125 women: less total fighters added overall & still gives UFC another title for PPV

On the day Cyborg becomes an American the UFC has the balls to do this to her. Cyborg should’ve been named champion. Grade A garbage

Ummm paging Ms. Cyborg ? https://t.co/8KQkLzgVFG

UFC pushed off making WFW div forever. Now they’re in such a rush they can’t wait for the fighter who OWNED 145 for 10 years? Gimme a break.

Also, how hilarious would it be if Ronda decided to move up to 145 to rematch Holm after ducking Cyborg for so many years due to the weight?

Surely the 125 division isnt far away??… https://t.co/UuFl975yPX

Starting a women’s 145-lbs class where Cyborg won’t be champ seems bad. But starting one where Cyborg will be really, really angry? Eh, OK.

After the cancellation of the January PPV, UFC had to have a big Feb PPV. Remember, that $4.2 billion means a lot of debt to finance.

I’d rather move down to 125 TBH. Im kinda small for 135, often looking UP at opponents at weighins lol?fought a lot of people bigger than me https://t.co/zayIZftxIG

@criscyborg we all know who the champ is!

People pleaded for UFC to create a women’s featherweight division and are now surprised/upset that title fight is between two bantamweights.
— Robert Sargent (@MMARising) 14 december 2016
That’s insane!! That’s ridiculous!!! Wtf!?! I won’t be watching that unless is @criscyborg fighting for the tittle. I’m shocked! What a hell https://t.co/A71PjXSSqQ
