UFC champ Cris Cyborg granted boxing license

Having been a professional fighter since 2005, former Strikeforce and Invicta FC champion Cris Cyborg took a long, winding road to get to the UFC. After much back and forth with the organization, she finally climbed the mountaintop to be a champion in the sport’s premier organization.

But she’s not about to rest on her laurels anytime soon.

As per MMA Fighting’s Marc Raimondi, Cyborg has applied for and has been granted a boxing license in the state of California, as well as a federal boxing ID. The news was confirmed by MMA Fighting’s Ariel Helwani, and it appears she’s heading to the junior middleweight division at 154lbs.

Curiously enough, this all comes after some footage emerged a short while ago of her training with Olympic gold medalist and the IBF and WBC female super middleweight champion Claressa Shields. Shields was quick to congratulate her on Twitter.

Bullet Club sold 400,000 shirts? WTF!?

The Bullet Club claim they have sold over 400,000 t-shirts By Tommy Messano on November 30, 2017 7:30 pm Wow, that deal with Hot Topic is just too.....you know what never mind. Thanks to their recent announcement of a planned 10,000 seat arena show in 2018 , The Bullet Club and Cody Rhodes are back in the crosshairs of the pro wrestling community at-large. A big stick pointing of the tentatively scheduled indie wrestling Super Bowl is who would finance the event? Well if you believe The Bullet Club themselves, their t-shirt deal with Hot Topic is doing very good and at this rate maybe the “All In” supershow may be financed on the backs of Rhodes, Bucks, Omega, Scurll and Page’s t-shirt sale. I can't see them selling 400,000 t-shirts in a 4 month period, but who am i?
