Considered by many to be the best MMA fighter of all time, Chris Cyborg will make her debut in the 2022 season. This Saturday (23), in Honolulu, Hawaii (USA), the Brazilian is promoting a rematch against Arlene Blencowe and is looking for her fourth belt defense. In addition to the Curitiba native's protagonism, the event also features a dispute for the interim bantamweight belt (up to 61,2kg) between Juan Archuleta and Raufeon Stots.

One of Bellator's biggest stars, Cyborg will try to repeat the great performance of his first clash against Blencowe. In October 2020, the Brazilian legend had no difficulties against the challenger, and submitted the Australian in the second round.
With the injury of the linear bantamweight champion, Sergio Pettis, Juan Archuleta and Raufeon Stots made the commitment to seek the interim group title. The athletes face each other in search of the right to unify the division title in the near future.
Cyborg's presence at the event is not the only reason for Brazilian fans to follow the card. In the first half of the event, the green and yellow will have two representatives. In a welterweight fight (up to 77kg.), Goiti Yamauchi faces Levan Chokheli. In a complicated situation in the company, Dayana Silva wants to recover against Janay Harding, in a fight at featherweight.
