Strikeforce champ Cristiane “Cyborg” Santos moved to June 26 “Fedor vs. Werdum” event

Strikeforce women’s middleweight champion Cristiane “Cyborg” Santos is slated to make her first title defense at the place she first won the belt.

Rather than fighting at a June 16 event in Los Angeles, Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker told MMAjunkie.com Santos instead is expected to fight at the organization’s June 26 show in San Jose, Calif.

As Coker sees it, that’ll mean the world’s top female fighter and top male fighter will be showcased on the same night.
