New UFC female featherweight champion Cris Cyborg wants Holly Holm.

And she wants her in Las Vegas at UFC 219 to close out the year.

I have agreed to fight Holly 3 different times but the @UFC couldn't get her side to sign Hopefully #ufc219 is far enough out to get it done pic.twitter.com/Cl1sXnCm9u

Cyborg captured the vacant title at UFC 214 recently when she finished Tonya Evinger. Holm, a former UFC bantamweight champion, competed for the inaugural featherweight title, falling to Germaine de Randamie.

“She had the chance to fight me twice at 140 but at 145 it will be for the gold,” Cyborg wrote. “Dec. 30th gives the UFC time to promote it right.”

Holm got back in the win column earlier this year when she defeated Bethe Correia.
