- Invicta will make its Houston debut on Dec. 5. But it will do so without Cris "Cyborg" Justino.
Justino, the former Strikeforce featherweight champion, was slated to return to action at Invicta 10, but had to pull out due to a rupture of the anterior talofibular ligament in her left ankle.
Invicta president Shannon Knapp indicated Saturday that Justino's injury occurred three weeks ago, but the company decided to wait on the severity of the injury before making the change.
In Justino's place, Invicta 10 will be headlined by "The Karate Hottie," Michelle Waterson. Waterson (12-3) will defend her atomweight title against Brazil's Herica Tiburcio (8-2). http://www.mmafighting.com/2014/11/1/7144751/injury-forces-cris-cyborg-off-invicta-10-new-main-event-announced | |

| the karate hottie is a happy girl right now. she wasnt going to last 30 seconds with cyborg. i mean just listen to each of their nicknames. if that is any indicator of how the fight would go it would have ended ugly imo | |

| I think you mis-read that. lol
Waterston is an atomweight (105lb) fighter. They're bumping her title fight up to to fill the slot of Cyborg's cancelled bantamweight title fight. | |
