Evangelista 'Cyborg' Santos signs with Legacy FC, February debut expected...

Veteran welterweight Evangelista "Cyborg" Santos has signed with the Texas-based Legacy Fighting Championship organization, officials today told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com).

Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Santos, a former Strikeforce title challenger, is expected to make his promotional debut in February on AXS TV.

Santos, 34, hasn't fought since a TKO loss to fast-rising contender Jordan Mein more than 13 months ago. It marked his second straight loss.

Before the skid, the former PRIDE fighter and Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt had posted back-to-back wins over Daniel Zarate and Marius Zaromskis. The latter, which marked his welterweight debut, came in Strikeforce and set up a title shot with then-champ Nick Diaz, which Santos lost via second-round armbar.

Following the loss to Mein and with no scheduled fights on the horizon, Santos requested and was granted his Strikeforce release.

I could be interesting. Macaco will face Johil de Oliveira now though.

Looking forward to this. Cyborg never fails to excite fans.

I heard ONE FC was doing Cyborg vs Manhoef 2?
