Cris Cyborg agrees to fight Ronda Rousey, but only in WWE with her ‘joke’ manager

Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) women’s featherweight champion Cristiane Justino is no longer interested in fighting former 135-pound titleholder Ronda Rousey, even though manager Edmond Tarverdyan was teasing a “Cyborg” fight before “Rowdy” calls is a career.

Probably because Justino has moved on to bigger and better things, like a potential 145-pound showdown opposite Holly Holm, who crushed Rousey to win the bantamweight belt back at UFC 193.

“If Ronda wants to come back for a fight,” Cyborg told MMA Fighting, “I believe it’s better for her to fight Miesha Tate. I’m in another stage of my career. I wanted to fight Ronda when she was psychologically well and confident. Now, if she wants to make a good fight for the fans, we can make it at WWE. Her coach would fit perfectly in her corner in WWE, he’s nothing but a joke.”

Rousey, who was stopped by Amanda Nunes at UFC 207 last December, has spent the better part of 2017 flirting with World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) after dabbling in professional wrestling a few years back.

If and when she actually transitions to the world of make believe has yet to be determined, but it sounds like she already has a long list of potential opponents waiting for her arrival.
