Invicta FC featherweight champion Megan Anderson has come forward with a heated message to Cris Cyborg over social media, calling the UFC title holder by her boyfriends name.
Cyborg and Anderson have been getting into heated exchanges over social media as of later. The UFC featherweight champion is looking to face off against UFC bantamweight title holder Amanda Nunes. That being said, Cyborg was once interested in facing off against Megan Anderson.
During an exchange over social media, Cyborg would go to accuse Megan Anderson of immigration fraud.
“You want to talk business @MeganA_mma? I didn’t come to USA on a tourist visa to work illegally then have personal issues so I could marry and stay in America!! @uscis”

Megan Anderson would go on to accuse Ray Elbe, boyfriend to Cris Cyborg, of making the statement through the UFC featherweight champion’s social media account.
“You have no idea what you’re talking about. Instead of trying to run my name through the mud again, about my personal issues that you know nothing about but think you do, go talk to the UFC. This isn’t the conduct of a champion. Shame on you Ray.”
