Cris Cyborg is doing her best to stay busy.

The multi-promotion MMA champion will join the Fight Night 3: San Jose card for a boxing match against Precious Harris-McCray in the evening’s co-main event. Fight Night is a promotion launched by former Bellator and Strikeforce leader Scott Coker and ex-Strikeforce champ Gilbert Melendez a little more than a year ago. The event will take place at Tech CU Arena in San Jose, California, on May 17 and is headlined by a bantamweight MMA bout between Bobby Seronio III and Lake Gee.

“San Jose holds a special place in my heart as it was where I was able to be a part of history when I became the inaugural Strikeforce women’s featherweight champion in the first televised women’s MMA main event fight,” Justino said in a release. “Scott Coker is someone who I have worked with for many years and have great respect for. I am thrilled to join Fight Night alongside Gilbert Melendez to continue my boxing career.”

Justino’s last appearance in the Sweet Science came in a third-round stoppage of Valentina Angarita in Colombia on March 20. She also boxed a little more than two weeks prior, defeating Karen -Fernandes-174631">Karen Fernandes via Round 2 knockout on March 3 — also in Colombia.

The Chute Boxe standout’s lone MMA bout of 2024 occurred at PFL Super Fights "Battle of the Giants: Brace for Impact,” where she took a five-round verdict over former PFL two-division champion Larissa Pacheco. With a 28-2 record and titles in the Ultimate Fighting Championship, Bellator MMA, Strikeforce and Invicta FC, “Cyborg” is one of the most accomplished female mixed martial artists of all-time. A timetable for her MMA return is unknown, though it will likely be under the PFL banner.
