UFC Women?s Featherweight Champion Cristiane ?Cyborg? Justino successfully defended her title against former UFC Women?s Bantamweight Champion Holly Holm at UFC 219.
Mark A. Aragon or mma2_media on Instagram, is a photographer associated with Camp Jackson-Winklejohn, which is where Holm trains. Following UFC 219 and Holm's loss, a photo of Cyborg popped up on Aragon?s Instagram and the photographer called the women?s champion a man on three separate occasions in the comments section.
Cyborg got wind of this and not only posted the now deleted Instagram post from Aragon, but has demanded an apology for what was written:

While Holm has yet to issue any form of statement on the matter, a representative from Camp Jackson-Winklejohn issued an apology to Cyborg on Facebook:
Fightful will keep you updated as the situation unfolds.
