It looks like Cris Cyborg has agreed to contract terms with Strikeforce

So a lot of people who should have more sense have used Cris Cyborg's Strikeforce contract status to accuse Zuffa of not being interested in women's MMA. These people are out to lunch. Though Cris' contract expired, Chute Boxe owner Rudimar Fedrigo has been negotiating with Scott Coker for months and always insisted that Cris would re-sign. When the contract expired, he announced that she would fight in Brazil in August and that he may have a couple more things going. There were reports that negotiations with Strikeforce had broken off but Fedrigo denied that and said he was still talking with them. Yesterday Fedrigo told Full Contact Fighter that Cris Cyborg has re-signed with Strikeforce. Is he her manager? He's also her trainer and it's not unusual for foreign fighters to have someone like that handle these kind of negotiations. MMA Junkie attempted to get some sort of clarification from Strikeforce. Not surprisingly, they were non-committal. Well, they didn't deny it. The likely status is Cris has agreed to terms but hasn't actually signed the contract yet. I thought this kind of semantic nonsense would have ended when Zuffa bought Strikeforce. I guess not. Old habits die hard. When you're dealing with an important fighter like Cris Cyborg, maybe Strikeforce should respond to a report like this with some candor for a change. I would expect yesterday's report to turn out to be accurate.
