It appears that the pressure is on Cris “Cyborg” Justino – and we haven’t even come to Saturday night yet.

The reigning Invicta FC featherweight champion agreed to compete at 140 pounds vs. Lina Lansberg at UFC Fight Night 95. While she remains several pounds away from hitting that mark – and still has until Friday to do so – several people have sounded off about it.

Brian Stann, who works commentary for UFC events on FOX Sports 1, stated his thoughts on it and Cyborg responded, claiming that she cannot even come in at 141 pounds without risk of losing part of her fight purse and the chance to claim a “fight night” bonus.

As you can see in the weigh-in video from UFC 198 earlier this year, the cut was a difficult one for Cyborg. She appears very drawn out and almost exhausted while weighing in for her fight with Leslie Smith.
