Cyborg allegedly confronted Magana over insults she directed toward the featherweight fighter on social media.
On Monday, Magana tweeted that the police are "looking into felony assault charges" and that she expects Cyborg to be released by the UFC:

Magana first mentioned pressing charges shortly after she spoke to the police in regards to the incident, while also dispelling a rumor that Cyborg had knocked her tooth out:
