The UFC athlete retreat did not go without its drama over the weekend. The retreat nearly made it through the end, but things quickly fell into controversy last night.
Former Invicta FC featherweight champion Cristiane “Cyborg” Justino has had a confrontation with UFC strawweight Angela Magana. After being struck by “Cyborg,” the UFC called for police. Following the event, Magana has decided to press charges.
Then, it was reported that former UFC middleweight champion Chris Weidman was confronted by “Cyborg.” However, it is unclear what happened between the two fighters.
Now, Weidman has come forward with his reaction to the event via Twitter. “Haha she pointed at me and I tucked my tail and ran,” the former champion stated.
