Former Strikeforce champion and current Invicta FC featherweight titleholder Cristiane Justino could have a busy year coming up. Invicta FC is targeting “Cyborg” for a featherweight title defense in a reboot of a previously scheduled match. Invicta FC President Shannon Knapp told MMAjunkie the promotion wants to pair Justino with Ediane Gomes (10-2) for Invicta FC 8 in March. The event’s location and date are not yet set, but Knapp said it could be the first time the promotion travels outside of Kansas City, Kan., where it’s held the bulk of its events. Additionally, Justino (12-1) is also in negotiations to fight for a title in the muay Thai promotion Lion Fight, which is based in Las Vegas. After a smashing debut at this past September’s Lion Fight 11 event, where “Cyborg” earned a third-round TKO via body shots, Lion Fights President and CEO Scott Kent and Justino co-manager George Prajin told MMAjunkie that verbal agreements are in place for a title bout against an unnamed opponent on March 28.
