The former UFC, Bellator and Invicta champion defeated Precious Harris-McCray via first-round technical knockout at Fight Nights 3 — the promotion run by Scott Coker and Gilbert Melendez — in San Jose on Saturday night. “Cyborg” landed a series of heavy punches that had her opponent stumbling all over the ring. That prompted the referee to step in and wave off the bout.

The heavy-handed Brazilian is now 3-0 in boxing in 2025, finishing all of her competition inside the distance. Her professional boxing record currently stands at 5-0 overall.

In a recent interview with MMAjunkie.com, “Cyborg” said that she expected her next PFL fight to be announced soon.

“I know my manager did a great contract, an amazing contract with the PFL,” she said. “I’m really happy to be able to be boxing when I don’t have an MMA fight and I’m excited after this fight, for sure, you’re going to have news about my MMA fight.

“I have two more fights on my contract. … My plan is continue between MMA fights and boxing fights and I hope to finish my career a PFL champion and a boxing champion.”

Justino’s last MMA appearances came at PFL “Battle of the Giants: Brace for Impact” where she took a five-round verdict over Larissa Pacheco this past October. “Cyborg” has won eight straight appearances dating back to July 2019.
