Holly Holm open to 140-pound catchweight bout with Cris Cyborg

Despite Holly Holm's refusal to fight Cristiane Justino - otherwise known as Cyborg - at UFC 198, The Preacher's Daughter is more than open to the idea at a future event.

Cyborg made her UFC debut at the 45,000 strong Arena da Baixada in Curitiba, Brazil last Saturday and the Brazilian says it was one of the highlights of her career. Unable to make the cut to 135-pounds, Justino fought Leslie Smith at a catchweight of 140 and brutalized the American in the first round. The Invicta FC Featherweight champion has been on a tear since she returned from suspension in 2013, scoring four out of five KO's in the first round.
